How to handle Invalid Authenticity Token json request from application controller in rails
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
When user tries to fill form using script or automation, application controller raises error of the
"ActionController::InvalidAuthenticityToken"
This happens for valid genuine users when they fill a form, close their browser, reopens the page from their browser history and submit form.
In this case I don't want to send an exception using exception notifier, and I also want to show the modal with the refreshed request message.
So I have modified application_controller as
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
protect_from_forgery with: :exception
rescue_from ActionController::InvalidAuthenticityToken, with: :handle_csrf_error
def handle_csrf_error(exception)
respond_to do |format|
format.js {
render 'invalid_requests/error'
}
format.html {
render text: I18n.t('errors.messages.csrf_error')
}
end
ExceptionNotifier.notify_exception(exception)
end
end
I want to make this works for all types of requests.
I have added responses for the html & js requests
But not getting how to handle the json request.
P.S > json request is sent from web application for load more case & sometimes exception raises, so want I to handle this.
My Rails version is 4.2

Note that CSRF protection is only useable for "classic apps" where Rails serves the views (since the client needs to get a token from a form) and the client accepts cookies. For an API that serves JSON you'll want to disable the Rails CSRF protection. stackoverflow.com/questions/35181340/…

After you make sure your request is correctly making a json request and not a js one (check your Content-Type header). Add a format.json to your server response.
respond_to do |format|
format.json { render json: true }
end

Turn off the check for the authenticity token in your controller.
skip_before_action :verify_authenticity_token
