Thanks for your bugreport! 🙌

I already merged a fix, if you want to give it a try (and not wait for another release), please modify your Gemfile like so:

gem "rails_mini_profiler", git: "https://github.com/hschne/rails-mini-profiler"

Additionally, I updated the readme with some information on additional measures you may have to take to get Rails Mini Profiler running in your API-only app. See here.

Let me know how it goes! I'd love to get more feedback from you to better support API-only apps 🙂

thank you @hschne it's working now. I just want to say, Gemfile should be like this

gem "rails_mini_profiler", git: "https://github.com/hschne/rails-mini-profiler", branch: 'main'

I will share my experience about it on API only app 😉
