However, at times it can be necessary to set an `authenticity_token` for the resource; this can be done by passing an `authenticity_token: 'your_external_token'` parameter to the `form_tag` options: ```erb -<%= form_tag 'http://farfar.away/form', authenticity_token: 'external_token') do %> +<%= form_tag 'http://farfar.away/form', authenticity_token: 'external_token' do %> Form contents <% end %> ``` -Sometimes when you submit data to an external resource, like payment gateway, fields you can use in your form are limited by an external API.
