    public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('contact_us', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->id();
            $table->string('name');
            $table->string('email');
            $table->string('subject');

Route::get('google-v3-recaptcha', [GoogleV3CaptchaController::class, 'index']);
Route::post('validate-g-recaptcha', [GoogleV3CaptchaController::class, 'validateGCaptch']);

Step 6 – Create Controller

php artisan make:controller GoogleV3CaptchaController

The above command will create GoogleV3CaptchaController.php file, which is located inside LaravelGoogleV3Recaptcha/app/Http/Controllers/ directory.

The following laravel validation rules will validate google recaptcha form data before save into database in laravel:

        $validatedData = $request->validate([
            'name' => 'required',
            'email' => 'required',
            'subject' => 'required',
            'message' => 'required',
            'g-recaptcha-response' => 'required|recaptchav3:contact-us,0.5'

        ]);

So open GoogleV3CaptchaController.php file and add the following code into it:

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Models\ContactUs;


class GoogleV3CaptchaController extends Controller
{
    public function index()
    {
        return view('google-v3-recaptcha');
    }

    public function validateGCaptch(Request $request)
    {

        $validatedData = $request->validate([
            'name' => 'required',
            'email' => 'required',
            'subject' => 'required',
            'message' => 'required',
            'g-recaptcha-response' => 'required|recaptchav3:contact-us,0.5'

        ]);


        $save = new ContactUs;

        $save->name = $request->name;
        $save->email = $request->email;
        $save->subject = $request->subject;
        $save->message = $request->message;

        $save->save();

        return redirect('google-v3-recaptcha')->with('status', 'Google V3 Recaptcha has been validated form');

    }
}

Step 7 – Create Blade File

In step 7, create new blade view file that named google-v3-recaptcha.blade.php inside resources/views directory for display contact us form with google v3 recaptcha validation in laravel.

One more thing for use google v3 recaptcha with laravel forms, you need to add the following code on laravel form:

{!! RecaptchaV3::initJs() !!}

{!! RecaptchaV3::field('contact-us') !!}
