Episode #165 - getting Can't verify CSRF token authenticity in --api project

Jiri Prochazka asked in Rails
Hi,

I'm trying to use Knock as in episode #165 API Authentication with JSON Web Tokens (JWT) and Knock.

I'm going step by step, but when trying to obtain the token by:

curl --data "auth[email]=myemail@gmail.com&auth[password]=pass" http://localhost:3000/api/v1/user_token

I'm getting 'Unprocessabel entity' and in my log there is 'Can't verify CSRF token authenticity. Completed 500 Internal Server Error in 96ms'

But at the start I have created a brand new project with --api flag. I created the project twice to be sure (5.2.0.rc1).
Should not the rails new backend --api generate a project without CSRF?

Thanks

Ok, I just tried with Rails 5.1.4 and it is working. So it is something with 5.2.0.rc1..
