Getting the ID of a newly saved record

Quick question:

How do I get the ID of a newly saved record right after its been saved
with the .save method?

For example: @message.save

@message.id is blank. I’m sure this is an easy answer, thanks in
advance.

Hey,

the easy answer is: did the save() fail because of validation errors?

You could use @message.to_param

You may want to just double check that the ID field on your table is
called “id” and not something else, and that it is set to
auto-increment.
