Question

I am not able to create new api_user. Everytime I try to create it I get

Can't mass-assign protected attributes: utf8, authenticity_token, api_user, commit, action, controller

here’s my model api_user.rb

class ApiUser < ActiveRecord::Base
 attr_accessible :api_key, :count, :email, :name, :organization
end

controller api_users_controller.rb

class ApiUsersController < ApplicationController
 #skip_before_filter :verify_authenticity_token

 def new
  @api_user = ApiUser.new
 end

 def create
    @api_user=ApiUser.create(params)
    render :text=>"#{@api_user.id}"
end

def destroy
    @api_user=ApiUser.find(params[:id])
    @api_user.destroy
    render :text=>"Deleted successfully"
end
 end

I am using Ruby 1.9.2 and Rails 3.2.3

In order to create the ApiUser, you should use only the correct params:

@api_user=ApiUser.create(params[:api_user])

not all the paramshash
