undefined local variable or method verify_recaptcha

I am following the this to implement captcha, but I am stuck at last step. Here is my controller:

 bug_report = BugReport.new(bug_report_params)
      if verify_recaptcha
        if bug_report.valid?
          bug_report.save!
          #render success
        else
          #throw error
        end
      else
         #Invalid captcha
      end

I am getting error saying: undefined local variable or method verify_recaptcha

Other codes are here:

view

 <%= form_for :bug_report, url: bug_reports_path do |f| %>
        <%= recaptcha_tags %>
        <%= f.submit 'Submit' %>
    <% end %>

gemfile

gem "recaptcha", :require => "recaptcha/rails"

recaptcha.rb

Recaptcha.configure do |config|
  config.public_key  = 'publik_key_here'
  config.private_key = 'private_key_here'
end

I am getting the following data in params:

{
utf8: "✓",
g-recaptcha-response: "Long text here",
commit: "Submit",
controller: "api/v1/bug_reports",
action: "index"
}

Please guide me, how to fix it.

From your comments, It looks like you have the rails app with config.api_only = true set in application.rb. For a list of what it actually does, check this documentation.

One consequence of this is ApplicationController would inherit from ActionController::API instead of ActionController::Base. But if you look at recaptcha's source code, the include is on ActionController::Base.

So, you can directly include Recaptcha::Verify module in your ApplicationController.

# app/controllers/application_controller.rb
class ApplicationController < ActionController::API
  include Recaptcha::Verify
...
end
