You are passing 'user' as a string to your json. So it will just send that string.
You could try doing something like:



render json: {status: 'load', message:'load', user: user.to_json},status: :ok


Or even:



render json: user


That will get rid of the status and message json attributes, but you could argue the status should be shown by the HTTP response code and you shouldn't need the message if you are passing the user as the response.



edit



OK, from your comment I think you probably need something along the lines of:



def index

  if request.headers["authentication_token"].present?

    user = User.find_by(authentication_token: request.headers["authentication_token"])     

    render json: user

  else

    render json: { .... whatever you want to render if not authorised }

  end

end

In successful case, you respond with the following json:



{status: 'load', message:'load'}



so everything is working as you described in controller. If you want to return user object, then change it to something like:



render json: { status: 'load', message:'load', user: 'user' }, status: :ok
