Devise: How to add custom field to registration form and permiting field params so that it is automatically saved in database ?

[prdpspkt]

I have a field user[role_id] in my form for user sign up form.
I have added param :role_id in
'protected

# If you have extra params to permit, append them to the sanitizer.
def configure_sign_up_params
devise_parameter_sanitizer.permit(:sign_up, keys: [:role_id])
end

# If you have extra params to permit, append them to the sanitizer.
def configure_account_update_params
devise_parameter_sanitizer.permit(:account_update, keys: [:role_id])
end
'
but while registering user role_id has not been inserted into database. Please help

Have you updated your registration form to send the role_id as a parameter of the request?

I'm new to ruby on rails. I have this field in form
<div class="form-group"> <select class="form-control" name="user[role_id]"> <[e-mail] do |role| %> <option value="<%=role.id%>"><%=role.name %></option> <%end%> </select>
I'm using rails 5.0

Can you please provide a sample application that reproduces the error?

[prdpspkt]

I found it was not an issue with devise but with myself. Sorry for spoiling your time. I did It myself. Thank you very much for your timely response.

Can you provide the answer that you found for others who may be having a similar issue?

This worked for me, i wanted to add a first_name and last_name for registration

class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
  before_action :configure_permitted_parameters, if: :devise_controller?

  protected

  def configure_permitted_parameters
    devise_parameter_sanitizer.permit(:sign_up, keys: [:first_name, :last_name])
  end
end
