Cannot access ActionController::Parameters no matter what I try

No idea why I can't access these params which are of class ActionController::Parameters. Here are the params:

{"{\"base_options\":{\"origin\":{\"name\":\"\",\"phone\":\"\",\"street_1\":\"\",\
"street_2\":\"\",\"zip\":\"\",\"city\":\"\",\"state_iso2\":\"\",\"country_iso2\":\
"US\",\"address_type\":\"commercial\"},\"destination\":{\"name\":\"\",\"phone\":\"\",
\"street_1\":\"932 MyStreet Dr\",\"street_2\":\"\",\"zip\":\"12345\",\"city\":\"Mecio\",
\"state_iso2\":\"NX\",\"country_iso2\":\"US\",\"address_type\":\"residential\"},
\"items\":"=><ActionController::Parameters {"{\"sku\":\"\",\"name\":\"\",
\"length\":{\"units\":\"in\",\"value\":0},\"width\":{\"units\":\"in\",\"value\":0},
\"height\":{\"units\":\"in\",\"value\":0},\"weight\":{\"units\":\"oz\",\"value\":10},
\"discounted_price\":{\"currency\":\"USD\",\"amount\":\"0\"},
\"declared_value\":{\"currency\":\"USD\",\"amount\":\"17.5\"},\"quantity\":1,
\"attributes\":"=>[{"}"=>{",\"customer\":{\"customer_groups\":"=>{"\"\""=>{"},\"cart_id\":\"05\"},
\"connection_options\":{\"auth_token\":\"adfasdf\",\"seller_id\":\"asdf\",\"marketplace\":\"5\"}
,\"zone_options\":"=>[{",\"rate_options\":"=>[{"}"=>nil}]}]}}}}]} permitted: false>, 
"controller"=>"welcome", "action"=>"amazon_creds"}

I'm trying to get the sku, but all I ever get is nil with anything I try. I've tried the following:

params[:sku]
params["sku"]
params[:base_options][:sku]
params.as_json[:base_options]
params.as_json[:sku]
params.to_h[:sku]
params.to_unsafe_h.slice(:base_options)
params.to_unsafe_h[:sku]
params[0]

And yes I've read this ActionContoller::Parameters

Yea I'm at a loss here, no idea how to access these params. Anyone out there put me out of my misery?

Rails will automatically populate the params hash with the deserialized request body if the Content-Type request header is set to application/json. It appears that the header is missing for this request. We're adding the appropriate header now.
