resource_params => NoMethodError: undefined method `keys' for nil:NilClass about jsonapi-utils

Making this helper method safe seems like a good idea for me and I will sure work on a refactoring asap.

Anyway, I'm curious on how you came to reach that error. Since :data is not present for the given operation and it probably requires the JSON body to be present (eg. POST, PUT, PATCH request), if an empty/bad formatted body is passed it should be verified and treated before calling the controller action.

It was via a request like GET /profile/:profile_id/articles where it was looking for a profile_id in params[:profile_id] OR resource_params[:profile_id].

The question then is, why look in resource_params[:profile_id] if it's a GET request? The answer is that I'm trying to keep the code DRY and avoid a conditional like if request.get?.

Ultimately, calling resource_params, even on a GET request, should not throw an exception (in my opinion).
