⚠ Laravel 5.5 streamlined the Exception Handler. Shift was not upgrade your app/Exceptions/Handler.php. You should compare yours against the Laravel 5.5 version and merge these changes manually.

ℹ In Laravel 5.5, the Request has() method returns true for empty strings and null. If you would like to preserve the old behavior of the has() method, you may use the new filled() method instead.

ℹ In Laravel 5.5, the Request only() method returns attributes that are actually present in the request payload. If you would like to preserve the old behavior of the only() method, you may use the all() method instead.
