I know that I am not passing argument in html but i dont know how to pass id argument in html please help me any single line of code something like default (context passing by Django)
You are defining a simple function, not a method in a class, you thus should remove the self
parameter:
# no self ↓
def put(request, id):
# …
Note that what you are doing with the choice_forms
is basically what a FormSet
does [Django-doc].
