Ruby on Rails: How to POST in my API? - ruby-on-rails

Question

I'm trying to create a task, but the attributes are null
Mi controller:
#app/controllers/api/v1/tasks_controller.rb
def create
respond_with Task.create(params[:Task])
end
I tried do POST to localhost:3000/api/v1/tasks with this data:
{"task": {"name":"hello world"}} or {"name":"hello world"}
but the result has attributes null:
#Response Body
{
"id": 1,
"name": null,
"created_at": "2014-03-23T22:41:37.961Z",
"updated_at": "2014-03-23T22:41:37.961Z"
}
Update:
# Server log

Thanks vee, emcanes, Carlos Figueiredo and BroiSatse for your answers. I solved the problem.
I changed create action:
#app/controllers/api/v1/tasks_controller.rb
def create
respond_with Task.create(task_params)
end
And I added:
#app/controllers/api/v1/tasks_controller.rb
private
...
def task_params
params.require(:task).permit(:name)
end
