How to access current_user in stimulus_reflex

Question

In this reflex I want to set the lastupdateby field to the current_user. I haven't been able to get it to work. Is there something I need to do to get that value in a reflex? Any thoughts on what I am doing wrong? If I hard code the value instead of current_user it works. I must just be referencing it wrong.

def toggle
 todo = Todo.find(element.dataset[:id])
 todo.update(completed_at: (todo.completed_at? ? nil : Time.current), lastUpdatedBy: current_user)
end

Ref :- https://headway.io/blog/a-future-for-rails-stimulusreflex, you have to add `delegate :current_user, to: :connection` — Salil, Oct 09 '20 at 12:43
@Salil why not add this as an answer, so people can upvote and OP can accept it. This way it will be more visible to other user :-) — Roland Studer, Oct 12 '20 at 09:23
