{      '_id':'..4e57',    '_links':{         'self':{            'href':'https://uat-api.synapsefi.com/v3.1/users/..54e57'       }    },    'client':{         'id':'..26a34',       'name':'charlie brown llc'    },    'doc_status':{         'physical_doc':'missing|invalid',       'virtual_doc':'missing|invalid'    },    'documents':[       ],    'emails':[       ],    'extra':{         'cip_tag':1,       'date_joined':1504774195147,       'extra_security':false,       'is_business':true,       'last_updated':1504774195147,       'public_note':none,       'supp_id':'123abc'    },    'is_hidden':false,    'legal_names':[         'hello mchello'    ],    'logins':[         {            'email':'hello@synapsepay.com',          'scope':'read_and_write'       }    ],    'permission':'unverified',    'phone_numbers':[         '555-555-5555'    ],    'photos':[       ],    'refresh_token':'refresh_..g8lpqf6' } 

and here error getting browser:

typeerror @ /setup_profile/ json object must str, bytes or bytearray, not 'user' request method: post request url:    http://127.0.0.1:8000/setup_profile/ django version: 1.8.6 exception type: typeerror exception value:     json object must str, bytes or bytearray, not 'user' 

** update **

the following response when print user:

<class 'synapse_pay_rest.models.users.user.user'>({'client': <class 'synapse_pay_rest.client.client'>(base_url=https://uat-api.synapsefi.com/v3.1), 'json': {'_id': '..920e6', '_links': {'self': {'href': 'https://uat-api.synapsefi.com/v3.1/users/..920e6'}}, 'client': {'id': '..026a34', 'name': 'charlie brown llc'}, 'doc_status': {'physical_doc': 'missing|invalid', 'virtual_doc': 'missing|invalid'}, 'documents': [], 'emails': [], 'extra': {'cip_tag': 1, 'date_joined': 1505093840940, 'extra_security': false, 'is_business': true, 'last_updated': 1505093840940, 'public_note': none, 'supp_id': '123abc'}, 'is_hidden': false, 'legal_names': ['hello mchello'], 'logins': [{'email': 'hello@synapsepay.com', 'scope': 'read_and_write'}], 'permission': 'unverified', 'phone_numbers': ['555-555-5555'], 'photos': [], 'refresh_token': 'refresh_..cybeirna3p'}, 'id': '..920e6', 'refresh_token': 'refresh_..eirna3p', 'logins': [{'email': 'hello@synapsepay.com', 'scope': 'read_and_write'}], 'phone_numbers': ['555-555-5555'], 'legal_names': ['hello mchello'], 'permission': 'unverified', 'note': none, 'supp_id': '123abc', 'is_business': true, 'cip_tag': 1, 'base_documents': 0, 'oauth_key': 'oauth_..dqzuj', 'expires_in': '7200'}) 

here comes type user , type user.json:

type(user) returns

<class 'synapse_pay_rest.models.users.user.user'> 

type(user.json)

<class 'dict'> 

the error coming json loads line

response = json.loads(user) 

this because json.loads expects string object can converted json dictionary, being passed user object, , consequently throwing typeerror.

in case, since type of user.json dictionary, can replace response line this:

response = user.json
