My laravel returns a 404 when it doesn’t find the user in the bank. I remember that there is a way to do this check and return a response, but I don’t remember and I can’t find it. Can anyone help me?

I’m not going to put the entire function code

Route::post('/users/validate-pin/{user}', [AppHttpControllersApiUserController::class, 'validatePIN'])->name('api-users.validatePIN');



public function validatePIN(User $user, Request $request)
    {
        try {
            if(!$request->user()->can('Validar PIN')){
                return response()->json([
                    'success' => false,
                    'message' => 'Não autorizado',
                    'error' => 'Unauthenticated',
                ], 401);
            }

            ...

        } catch (Throwable $error) {
            dd($error);

            return response()->json([
                'success' => false,
                'message' => 'Erro no sistema',
                'error' => $error,
            ], 500);
        }
    }
