we can do this in much more simple way

def create(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
serializer =
if serializer.is_valid():
serializer.save()
return Response(serializer.data)


Hope this helps. Thanks for tutorials

tnx.
super great BUT if you have an model serializer, use it to validate and save data that you got from request !

hey
first of all your videos are great to understand how a django api works.
I've been following and executing the django api for car specs till this video and i cannot move forward because i'm facing an issue i.e. when i put depth =1, the field on the running server does not appear and when i dont put any depth, the field appears and i select one of the options for my entries and perform POST but when i GET the entry values, the car_plan field is null always, it doesnt change no matter what i do.
Please help me clear this so that i can move on to the next stages

Does it matter much whether we override perform_create or create function? Thx.

why in create method Id always extra increment example: if id was 4 now when we send POST requ. new data Id will be 6 .

It says 'user' for doing the same thing above. Can you please tell me what is the problem??
