I'm usig Django 2.x and Django REST Framework.

I have a viewset defined like

class UserSettingViewSet(mixins.ListModelMixin,
 mixins.RetrieveModelMixin,
 mixins.UpdateModelMixin,
 viewsets.GenericViewSet):

 serializer_class = UserSettingSerializer
 permission_classes = (IsAuthenticated, AdminAuthenticationPermission)

 def get_object(self):
 user_setting = UserSetting.objects.get(user=self.request.user)
 return user_setting

 def get_queryset(self):
 queryset = UserSetting.objects.filter(
 user=self.request.user
 )

 return queryset

 def update(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
 iso3 = request.POST.get('country', None)

 if iso3 is None or not iso3:
 raise ValidationError('country': 'Country iso3 is required')

 try:
 country = Country.objects.get(iso3=iso3.upper())
 except ObjectDoesNotExist:
 raise ValidationError('country': 'Country does not exists')

 user_setting = UserSetting.objects.get(user=request.user)

 user_setting.country = country
 user_setting.save()

 return super(UserSettingViewSet, self).update(request, *args, **kwargs)

When I call update from Angular it is not accepting form data and gives the error

'country': 'Country iso3 is required'

While sending data as **form-data from postman is working fine.**

The header of the Angular request is

How to setup Django to accept json data in PUT?

You need to use request.data instead of request.POST in your update method.
