._rrf_bulk_transaction(&block) ⇒ Object

Create a transaction around the passed block, if configured. This is used primarily for bulk actions, but we include it here so it’s always available.

#get_allowed_parameters ⇒ Object

Get a list of parameters allowed for the current action. By default we do not fallback to columns so arbitrary fields can be submitted if no fields are defined.
