How to fix the Python Django MultiValueDictKeyError error?

Spread the love

To fix the Python Django MultiValueDictKeyError error, we use the dictionary get method to get the dict value and return a default if the dict key doesn’t exist.

For instance, we write

is_private = request.POST.get('is_private', False)

to call get on request.POST to get the is_private dict value from the POST request payload.

And if is_private wasn’t sent, then we return False.
