Django ForeignKey Instance vs Raw ID

Question

Is there a way to not have to pass in a model instance for a foreign key when create a new model? Let\'s say I have the following models:

class Foo(models.M         


        

Answer 1

new_bar = Bar(info="something important", foo_id=12345)
new_bar.save()

You can also get foreign key values directly. Some kind of optimization.
