After the development of any application, it needs to be hosted on the server. After uploading and configuration of the application, you will be able to access your website through a URL. You also need an SSL certificate to secure the domain URL. But, after installing the SSL certificate the site doesn’t redirect from HTTP to HTTPS. It will allow you to open the website URL through HTTPS. But, you have to put HTTPS before the URL manually. Without having SSL the URL will show not secure in the browser. Generally, in the web application, you can redirect from HTTP to HTTPS using the .htaccess file. But sometimes it doesn’t work properly. Today, in this post, I will show you how you can redirect forcibly from **HTTP to HTTPS **in Laravel 8 application using middleware.

So, let’s begin by creating a new Laravel application here.
