Ruby on Rails Undefined method

I was going to create a link to a controller's action update_heimdall here is the code:

app/controller/admins_controller:

  def heimdall
    @headline = "Heimdall"
    @users = User.where(deleted_at: nil)
    authorize @users
    @focusUser = params['users'].blank? ? current_user : User.find(params['users'])
    heim = Heimdall.new
    @cards = heim.get_cards(@focusUser.trello_id, @focusUser.trello_access_token, @focusUser.trello_secret_token)
  end

  def update_heimdall 
    @user = params['users'].blank? ? current_user : User.find(params['users'])
    authorize @user
    heim = Heimdall.new
    heim.update_cards(@user.trello_id, @user.trello_access_token, @user.trello_secret_token)
  end

app/views/admins/heimdall.html.rb:

<%= link_to "Odśwież", update_heimdall(), class: "btn btn-warning" %>

I am enclosing as well listing from rails routes command:

heimdall GET    /heimdall(.:format) admins#heimdall                                        
update_heimdall GET   /heimdall/update_heimdall/:id(.:format)   admins#update_heimdall

Unfortunately this code causes the following error:

undefined method `update_heimdall'.

As in your code, convert heim in to an instance variable @heim so that you can access it in views. then call specifiy the object in action path.

When you performed rake routes you will get all the paths on left side

heimdall GET    /heimdall(.:format) admins#heimdall                                        
update_heimdall GET   /heimdall/update_heimdall/:id(.:format)   admins#update_heimdall

therefore your code should be:

<%= link_to "Odśwież", update_heimdall_path(@heim), class: "btn btn-warning" %>
