How to create custom Error 404 page

Hello, guys!

I'm creating a RESTful resource and I marked the page "new" as except.

OK. Everything working nice, BUT, how to handle a custom Error 404 page in JSON format (the default is html) when someone access the /new path?

Hello Falko !

You can set a custom 404 page in the "app/Config/Routes.php" file: https://codeigniter4.github.io/userguide...l#override

The part that will interest you is:

PHP Code:

// Would execute the show404 method of the App\Errors class
$routes->set404Override('App\Errors::show404'); 


So you just have to redirect to a Class::method of your choice, that will return the json response you are looking for :-)
