Custom Request Rule Returns Unauthorized

I am creating a simple API to check the requests rules. It always returns 403 unauthorized.

Firstly, I run php artisan make:request TestRequest then it will generate two functions, authorize() and rules().

This is my TestRequest:

<?php

namespace App\Http\Requests;

use Illuminate\Foundation\Http\FormRequest;

class TestRequest extends FormRequest {
    public function authorize() {
        return false;
    }

    public function rules() {
        return [
            'platform' => ['nullable', 'string'],
            'username' => ['nullable', 'string'],
            'phone_number' => ['nullable', 'string'],
            'phone_number' => ['nullable', 'string'],
            'type' => ['nullable', 'integer'],
            'gender' => ['nullable', 'string'],
            'status' => ['nullable', 'string'],
            'label_id' => ['nullable', 'array'],
            'label_id.*' => ['integer'],
            'interest' => ['nullable', 'string'],
            'sentiment_id' => ['nullable', 'integer'],
            'phone_code' => ['nullable', 'string'],
            'channel' => ['nullable', 'string'],
            'age_id' => ['nullable', 'integer'],
            'limit' => ['nullable', 'string'],
            'page' => ['nullable', 'integer'],
            'per_page' => ['nullable', 'integer']
        ];
    }
}

Then, my routes/api.php:

<?php

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;

Route::get('test', \App\Http\Controllers\api\TestController::class);

Then my TestController.php

<?php

use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use App\Http\Requests\TestRequest;

class TestController extends Controller {
    public function __invoke(TestRequest $request) {
        $valid_request = $request->validated();
        return $valid_request;
    }
}

Those returns this

{
    "status": "error",
    "message": "This action is unauthorized."
}

>Solution :

modify the authorize() method to return true

public function authorize() {
 return true;
}
