I have an issue with my Laravel API where by out of the blue it started returning a bot verification response and seems I have failed to get over this problem.
I am testing a Laravel API in postman and other API testing tools and also trying to consume it in my mobile app with flutter but out of the blue, the API started returning a recaptcha bot verification response instead of the responses expected and I have totally failed to find a working solution for this and fortunately if I access the API with a browser it returns the data.
Could there be anyone with a solution?

I tried consuming the API in postman and my mobile flutter app but it doesn’t return the expected data instead it returns a recaptcha bot verification response.
