doesn't get correct json from post request using rest console django

Question

when i,m going to fetch the json from google chrome's advanced rest console POST request i'm getting my whole data as a key and empty string as a value

my json is :

{
    "school_id" : "1",
    "registration_no" : "",
    "first_name" : "Anmol",
    "middle_name" : "987686853",
    "last_name" : "",
    "student_category_id" : "null",
    "date_of_birth" : "1991-01-01",
    "gender" : "MALE",
    "street_address" : "",
    "student_city" : "",
    "student_state" : "",
    "student_country" : "",
    "pin_code" : "",
    "religion" : "",
    "nationality" : "",
    "phone_number" : "",
    "mobile_number" : "987686853",
    "email" : "ab@cd.ef",
    "previous_institution_name" : "BFCET",
    "board" : "g",
    "latest_course" : "grapes",
    "passing_year" : "675",
    "percentage_marks" : "56",
    "course" : "1",
    "batch" : "2",
    "image" : "null",
    "is_active" :" true"
}

to fetch this json i'm using the code in my views.py file:

def create(self, request):

        data=request.POST
        print data
        print "school_id",data.get('school_id')

but by this i'm getting MultiValueDictKeyError error:

i'm using django restframework ,python.

Did you print data. What is there in it? – Barun Sharma Sep 14 '15 at 13:05 — Barun Sharma, Sep 14 '15 at 13:05

import json and data=json.loads(request.body) instead of data=request.POST

Your data will be there in request.body. I am assuming this is not a form submit Ajax call.
