• Laravel Version: 5.3

  Description:

The env() helper function not work in /routes/web.php, when I call this function, it return me a value of null for any parameter that I pass him. In this case env( APP_URL )

Steps To Reproduce:

my file .env

APP_URL=http://test.dev

dd( env( 'APP_URL' ) ); // Return null

I hope you can help me, thanks and greetings :D (Y)

You should only ever use the env function inside config files.

I understand, then, do I have no other alternative, for access to the value of APP_URL?

@Caxvalencia, config('app.url')
