use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;
use Laravel\Sanctum\HasApiTokens;

class User extends Authenticatable implements MustVerifyEmail
{
    use HasApiTokens, HasFactory, Notifiable;

    /**
     * The attributes that are mass assignable.
     *
     * @var array<int, string>
     */
    protected $fillable = [
        'name',
        'email',
        'password',
    ];

Update Web.php

Here in web.php file, we add ‘verified’ in middleware.

Route::get('/dashboard', function () {
    return view('dashboard');
})->middleware(['auth','verified'])->name('dashboard');
