Laravel validation if both field are empty then error . But if one is null then other is required

Question

I am trying to make a rule if one is empty or not present then other is required but if both are not present then it give error. I have used this but if both are empty then it not give any error

'inventory_storage_container_id'        => 'required_if:inventory_storage_space_id,=,null|integer|exists:inventory_storage_containers,id',
'inventory_storage_space_id'            => 'required_if:inventory_storage_container_id,=,null|integer|exists:inventory_storage_spaces,id',

What i have to do ? This is a different scenario if i not include both field in request body it not give any error but i need an error if both are empty . This topic is not duplicate .

try required_without

'inventory_storage_container_id'        => 'required_without:inventory_storage_space_id|integer|exists:inventory_storage_containers,id',
'inventory_storage_space_id'            => 'required_without:inventory_storage_container_id|integer|exists:inventory_storage_spaces,id',

Still it passing the rule if both are not present in the request. I think i need to handle it on controller side not in validation rule .

@MajidJavaid Can I see the controller?

Your case can handle with Laravel validation, you don't need to do it at the controller.

@MajidJavaid this answer is correct. If it's not working for you then you must be doing something incorrectly when sending or checking your input
