Rails unpermitted params

I'm trying to recieve some params within my controller, but I'm having issues when permitting them. This is my request payload:

{
    contacts: [{
            id: null,
            address: null,
            business: "Company",
            cellphone: "",
            city: null,
            country: null,
            email: "[email protected]"
        }],
    name: "Entity1"
}

Inside my controller, I defined:

  def update_params
    params.permit(
      :name,
      contacts_attributes: [
        :id, :first_name, :last_name, :email, :business, :position, :telephone,
        :cellphone, :address, :city, :state, :country
      ]
    )
  end

But when I call the update_params method, only :name is permitted. Contacts is unpermitted. Am I missing something?

First check in your model you have written accept_nested_attributes_for :contacts if yes then your code must work.

As I said, you are permitting contacts_attributes instead of contacts. Changing the update_params method like below should fix the problem.

def update_params
  params.permit(
    :name,
    contacts: [
      :id, :first_name, :last_name, :email, :business, :position, :telephone,
      :cellphone, :address, :city, :state, :country
    ]
  )
end
