Laravel5 auth.basic not working

Question

I'm having a "spotlight" page that should pass an authorization but even after i implemented these it's just going to that page directly

These are the codes in

web.php

Route::get('spotlight', array(

'before' => 'auth.basic',

function()

{

    return view('spotlight');

}));

There were similar questions i tried but didn't find a solution. Anything missing here.
Browser based authentication not prompting

If you are using laravel 5.4 you can attach middleware using middleware() function

Route::get('spotlight', function () {
    return view('spotlight');
})->middleware('auth.basic');
