 ## URI Variables Configuration
 
 URI Variables are configured via the `uriVariables` node on an `ApiResource`. It's an array indexed by the variables
 present in your URI, `/companies/{companyId}/employees/{id}` has two URI variables `companyId` and `id`.
 For each of these, we need to create a `Link` between the previous and the next node, in this example the link between a Company and an Employee.

 Note that in this example, we declared an association using Doctrine only between Employee and Company using a ManyToOne. There is no inverse association hence the use of `toProperty` in the URI Variables definition.
 
 The following declares a few subresources: - `/companies/{companyId}/employees/{id}` - get an employee belonging to a company - `/companies/{companyId}/employees` - get the company employee's

 ## Security
 
+> [!WARNING]
+> This is not yet available with Laravel, you're welcome to contribute [on Github](github.com/api-platform/core)
+
 In order to use Symfony's built-in security system on subresources the security option of the `Link` attribute can be used.
 
 To restrict the access to a subresource based on the parent object simply use the Symfony expression language as you would do normally, with the exception that the name defined in `toProperty` or `fromProperty` is used to access the object.
