I am gettting the error: [ErrorDetail(string='The submitted data was not a file. Check the encoding type on the form.', code='invalid')], for submitting an image/file.

I added the encryption type for the form 'multipart/form-data' same thing in Axios call too, but I still get the same error.

I have a model like this:

class MyModel(models.Model):
     img = models.ImageField(upload_to='media',blank=False)

In views.py:

class MyModelView(viewset.ModelViewSet):
      serializer_class = serializer.MyModelSerializer
      def post(self,request):
          data = serializer.MyModelSerializer(data=request.data)
          print(data.is_valid()) # this is false, means there is an error
          print(data.errors) #This one will display the error shown in the title of this question
          if data.is_valid():
             img = data.data['img']
             return Response('Success')
          return Response('Fail')

In serializer.py:

class MyModelSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
      class Meta:
          model = MyModel
          fields = '__all__'

In frontend side (React):

function ImgComp(){
     let [img,setImg] = useState({'image':''}
     let {image} = img
     function handleChange(e){
            setImg(
{
                ...img,[e.target.name]:e.target.value
}
               )
}
     function submitForm(e){
            e.preventDefault()
            axios.post('127.0.0.1:8000/mymodelurl/',img,{withCredentials:true,headers:{'Content-Type':'multipart/form-data'}})

     return(
         <div>
         <form method='post' encType='multipart/form-data' onSubmit = {(e)=>submitForm(e)}>
         <input type='file' value={image} name='img' onChange={(e)=>handleChange(e)}/>
         </form>

</div>

}
     

        
}

If I debug the img I get something like:

C:\\fakepath\\img.png
