    <p>I am using tastypie to quickly create an api for my django project. My Django consists of some Models, one of them is a customer model. The customer model has a foreign key to django's user model so it looks like this</p> <pre><code>class Customer(models.Model): ...fields.... creator = models.ForeignKey(User, related_name='created_customers' </code></pre> <p>I have created my CustomerResource</p> <pre><code>class CustomerResourse(ModelResource): creator = fields.ForeignKey(UserResource,'creator', null = True, blank= True, full=True) class Meta: queryset = Customer.objects.all() filtering = { 'last_name':ALL, 'first_name':ALL, } resource_name = 'customer' authentication = SessionAuthentication() authorization = DjangoAuthorization() </code></pre> <p>I woul like to be able to update my model using the api. Reading the tutorial it says updating a model is using PUT. So my steps were. </p> <p>1) Log in and get sessionid 2)store it 3)get the resource i need 4)modify the resource i need 5)create headers 6)use requests.put to put data back passing the headers and the sessionid cookie.</p> <p>the code(using requests)</p> <pre><code>headers = {'content-type':'application/json'} resp = requets.post(login_url, data=credentials, headers=headers) sessionid = resp.cookies['sessionid'] cookies = {'sessionid':sessionid} customer_json = request.get(customer_resource_url, cookies=cookies) customer_json['mobile'] = 'new mobile' resp.put(customer_resource_url, data=data, headers=headers, cookies=cookies) </code></pre> <p>What i get is a 401 unauthorized status code though. The user is super and staff so he can modify everything. The login happens normaly and I get the sessionid as i should. </p> <p>And a second question. If i create a new customer, will tastypie take care of foreign keys e.g taking in consideration the sessionid to determine the user creator, or does it need to be done manualy?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
