Question

How do I make a route that accepts an id or not

Here is my route:

match '/cancel_greeting/:id', :to => "greetings#cancel", :as => :cancel_greeting

I want it to work if there is an id present or not.

How can I do this?

Thanks

It becomes optional if you put the :id in paranthesis like this:

match '/cancel_greeting(/:id)', :to => "greetings#cancel", :as => :cancel_greeting
