simple_form_for with custom controller action

This line in my users index view:

<%= simple_form_for current_user, :url => user_change_client_path,
                                  :method => :patch,
                                  :id => current_user.id do |f| %>

generates the following error:

No route matches {:action=>"change_client", :controller=>"users"} missing required keys: [:user_id]

I have the change_client action defined in my controller. In my routes.rb I have:

resources :users, only: [:index] do
  patch 'change_client'
  patch 'approve'
end

Rake routes shows:

user_change_client PATCH  /users/:user_id/change_client(.:format)   users#change_client
user_approve PATCH  /users/:user_id/approve(.:format)               users#approve

What am I doing wrong that's causing the error?

Your route below:

user_change_client PATCH  /users/:user_id/change_client(.:format)

Requires a user_id parameter. When you call this helper, pass your current user to it like so:

user_change_client_path(current_user)
