Make Laravel request from array with objects

Question

I have an array that makes in front end with js and pass that to my controller with ajax.

Ajax:

var values = [{FirstName: "fff"},{LastName: null}]
$.ajax({
    method: "POST",
    url: "/api/store-step",
    data: { values: values, step: activePanelNum }
    }).fail(function (jqXHR, textStatus, error,result) {
       console.log(jqXHR.responseJSON.errors);
    }).done(function( result ) {
       console.log(result);
    });

structure of array is this:

[{FirstName: "fff"},{LastName: null}]

Controller:

public function storeSteps(Request $request)
{     
    $validator = Validator::make($request->values, [
       'FirstName' => 'required',
       'LastName' => 'required',
    ]);

    if ($validator->fails()) {
       return response()->json(['success'=>false, 'errors' => $validator->getMessageBag()->toArray()],422);
        }
}

I can't validate this array with request validation Laravel. Now I'm going to turn this array into a Larval request to apply the rules to it.

Can any one helps?

you can validate array element like this

$validator = Validator::make($request->all(), [
            'values' => 'required',
            'values.*.FirstName' => 'required',
            'values.*.lastName' => 'required','
        ]);

by using . you can access an index in a array and * apples all indexes in the array.

in addition to this above, you might need to json_decode() that array first.
