Create a save data using Django post_save() Signal

Question

Here I want to create a heatmap when a Lead is created, it'll create an example api for the particular API. This is my lead model and another model for the api, here I want to add a new example api when a new api is been created.

Lead- Signals.py

from django.db.models.signals import post_save, pre_save
from django.dispatch import receiver
from .models import Lead
from heatmap.models import HeatMap

@receiver(post_save, sender=Lead)
def create_heatmap_for_lead(sender, created,instance, **kwargs):
    print("signal is sent to heatmap")
    print("-------------------------------")
    # if created:
    #     HeatMap.objects.create(lead=instance)

Heatmap - models.py

class HeatMap(ModelMixin):
    heatmap_type = models.ForeignKey(Lead, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
    status = models.CharField(max_length=255)
    comment = models.TextField(null=True, blank=True)
    followUpDate = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
    class Meta:
        ordering = ['-created']

    def __str__(self):
        return str(self.status)

You have to change the signal function, You try to get created from kwargs. created is already defined in the function parameter also same for instance. See the code for a better understanding:

@receiver(post_save, sender=Lead)
def create_heatmap_for_lead(sender, instance, created, **kwargs):
    if created:
        HeatMap.objects.create(heatmap_type=instance)
