Axios GET with params being ignored - php

Question

Newbie to all the tech I'm using here.
Trying to query a table using Axios in Laravel with Vue.js. Here's what I got:
from my component's <script>
this.axios
.get('http://localhost:8000/api/tasks', {params: {vid: this.properties[0].vid}})
.then(response => {
this.tasks = response.data;
console.log(response)
})
Regardless of what vid is in the params, the response contains ALL of the table's rows.
I do know that this may have something to do with api.php, and the Controller associated with the request. I'll post those to be verbose.
routes/api.php
Route::middleware('api')->group(function () {
Route::resource('vehicles', VehicleController::class);
Route::resource('tasks', TaskController::class);
Route::get('tasks?={vid}', [TaskControler::class, 'search']);
});
Controllers/TaskController.php
class TaskController extends Controller
{
//
public function index() {
$tasks = Task::all()->toArray();
return $tasks;
}
public function store(Request $request){
$task = new Task([
'make' => $request->input('make'),
'model' => $request->input('model'),
'year' => $request->input('year'),
'mileage' => $request->input('mileage'),
'type' => $request->input('type'),
'VIN' => $request->input('VIN')
]);
$task->save();
}
public function show($tid){
$task = Task::find($tid);
return response()->json($task);
}
public function update($tid, Request $request){
$task = Task::find($tid);
$task->update($request->all());
return response()->json('Task Updated!');
}
public function destroy($tid){
$task = Task::find($tid);
$task->delete();
return response()->json('Task Deleted!');
}
}
I tried for a while to mess around with api and the controller, but to no avail. Most of the questions asked here give "just use params" as an answer, but despite my best efforts I don't seem to be able to get away with "just" params (willing to be proven wrong.)
