Laravel - Authentication - Redirecting Unauthenticated Users

When the auth middleware detects an unauthenticated user, it will redirect the user to the login named route. You may modify this behavior by updating the redirectTo function in your application's app/Http/Middleware/Authenticate.php file:

    
    /**
     * Get the path the user should be redirected to.
     *
     * @param  \Illuminate\Http\Request  $request
     * @return string
     */
    protected function redirectTo($request)
    {
        return route('login');
    }
