Laravel(Lumen) cheats because html forms only support GET and POST, but it does understand a real PUT/PATCH request.

In Postman You should send POST and set _method to PUT (same as sending forms) to make your data and files visible

 _method = "PUT"

Or

If you don't have a file and only have data, you can write your argument in the following option in Postman.

 x-www-form-urlencode

Or

You want use PUT method for send Data with form-Data option you should use stuff like this https://gist.github.com/devmycloud/df28012101fbc55d8de1737762b70348
