PR laravel#59526 added null support to redirectGuestsTo() and the guests parameter in redirectTo(). The users side was missed — redirectUsersTo() still only accepts callable|string, and the $users null check in redirectTo() was not updated.

Following #59505, which updated the exception handler to respect a
nullredirect and return a401response instead of forcing a redirect toroute('login'), theredirectGuestsTo()method still does not acceptnullin its type signature.This means API-only apps that want to disable the redirect must use:
With this change, you can now pass
nulldirectly:Changes
redirectGuestsTo()type signature fromcallable|stringtocallable|string|nullredirectTo()to wrapnullin a closure (same as it already does for strings), so it properly propagates throughredirectUsing()Backward Compatibility
This is fully backward compatible. Existing calls with
callableorstringarguments are unaffected. The only new behavior is thatnullis now a valid argument.
