Getting cURL error 3: <url> malformed (see http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/libcurl-errors.html) error after saving models in laravel 5.4

This error is due to the URL is not correct. Check the cURL error 3: check this link

I made a mistake when instantiating the the Guzzle Client Object:

Rather than assigning my baseUrl to th 'base_uri' key as below,

$client = new Client([        'base_uri' => $this->baseUrl    ]);

I assigned the $baseUrl to the 'base_uri' key, which does not exist.

$client = new Client([        'base_url' => $this->baseUrl    ]);

Be careful when doing this. make sure you use 'base_uri' instead of 'base_url.

laravel curl request laravel-5.4
