Vue js vee validate password confirmation always f

Question

I'm trying to use vee validate to verify the password using this code.

<div>
    <input type="password"
           placeholder="Password"
           v-model="password"
           v-validate="'required|min:6|max:35|confirmed'"
           name="password" />
</div>
<div>
    <span>{{ errors.first('password') }}</span>
</div>
<div>
    <input type="password"
           placeholder="Confirm password"
           v-model="confirmPassword"
           v-validate="'required|target:password'"
           name="confirm_password" />
</div>
<div>
    <span>{{ errors.first('confirm_password') }}</span>
</div>

But it always says The password confirmation does not match. What went wrong in my code?

any help

Thanks in advance.

There's an error with the Vee Validate syntax, change target: to confirmed:

v-validate="'required|target:password'"

should be

v-validate="'required|confirmed:password'"

Also, your password input must have ref="password" - that's how vee-validate finds the target:

<input v-validate="'required'" ... ref="password"> (Thanks, Ryley).

confirmed:{target} - Input must have the same value as the target input, specified by {target} as the target field’s name.

Have a look at the basic example below, it will check for two things:

• Does the second input field have any input value?
• If yes, does the second input value match the first input value?

var app = new Vue({
  el: '#app',
  data: {
    message: 'Hello Vue!'
  }
})

body {
  background: #20262E;
  padding: 15px;
  font-family: Helvetica;
}

#app {
  width: 60%;
  background: #fff;
  border-radius: 10px;
  padding: 15px;
  margin: auto;
}

      <div class="input-fields">
        <input v-validate="'required'" name="password" type="password" placeholder="Password" ref="password">

        <input v-validate="'required|confirmed:password'" name="password_confirmation" type="password" placeholder="Password, Again" data-vv-as="password">
      </div>
    </div>

    <!-- ERRORS -->
    <div class="alert alert-danger" v-show="errors.any()">
      <div v-if="errors.has('password')">
        {{ errors.first('password') }}
      </div>
      <div v-if="errors.has('password_confirmation')">
        {{ errors.first('password_confirmation') }}
      </div>
    </div>

  </form>
</div>
