Can you explain how to get access to "data.url" in has_many model?

Hmm.. to my knowledge, & (unary operator) is converting to_proc on an object.

so file.map(&:data_file_name) is equal to:
file.map {|i| i.data_file_name)

but on your second example 

files.map(&:data.url) , ruby interpret it as call 'url' method on symbol :data and call to_proc

hmm. I dont know the solution, but you might try

files.map do |file|
  file.data.url
end
