If you tried this in the controller, you would find the params hash available.
But in the model, there's no such animal. That's what the error message is
telling you. You could pass that variable back to the model, like this:
def set_wishlist(params)
...
end
and then include the params hash in your method call. But if you want to rely
on that hash just being there, you could probably put this method in your
controller and call it from there in your after_create callback.
