 Ring route validation works [just like with core router](../basics/route_data_validation.md), with few differences:
 
-* `reitit.ring.spec/validate` should be used instead of `reitit.spec/validate` - to support validating all endpoints (`:get`, `:post` etc.)
+* `reitit.ring.validate.spec/validate` should be used instead of `reitit.spec/validate` - to support validating all endpoints (`:get`, `:post` etc.)
 * With `clojure.spec` validation, Middleware can contribute to route spec via `:specs` key. The effective route data spec is router spec merged with middleware specs.
