Dynamically creating tables using SQLite and Django - django

Question

I am given a task for a web application I’m developing currently. Currently, my code allow me to do the necessary saving to the existing tables, but I am unsure of how to do the following task. The task is to dynamically create tables as long as the 'save' button is pressed in my web application. I am using SQLite for my database.
Example: I have the field of 'name'. So the user types Test for the name field. Upon saving, this name is stored in an existing table and register under a id of 1. At the same time, I want to be able to create a new table with its own fields. This table will be named example_(id). So in this case it will be example_1.
I’m a beginner in Django and SQL so if anyone can guide/help me in any way, thank you!
Got the error of
views.py
#api_view(['GET'])
def selected_device(request,pk=None):
if pk != None:
devices = Device.objects.filter(pk=pk)
devicedetail = DeviceDetail.objects.filter(DD2DKEY=pk)
cursor = connection.cursor()
tablename= "dev_interface_" + str(pk)
cursor.execute(f"SELECT interface FROM {tablename} ")
righttable = cursor.fetchall()
devserializer = DeviceSerializers(devices, many=True)
devdserializer = DeviceDetailSerializers(devicedetail, many=True)
interfaces = []
for i in righttable:
interfaces.append(i[0])
for i in interfaces:
data =[{"interface": i}]
interserializer = InterfaceSerializers(data, many = True)
results = {
"device":devserializer.data,
"device_details" : devdserializer.data,
"interface":interserializer.data,
}
return Response(results)
In interfaces, I have the following ['G0/1', 'TenGigabitEthernet1/1/3', 'TenGigabitEthernet1/1/5', 'TenGigabitEthernet1/1/20', 'TenGigabitEthernet1/1/21', 'TenGigabitEthernet1/1/22', 'TenGigabitEthernet1/1/23', 'TenGigabitEthernet1/1/24', 'TenGigabitEthernet1/1/25', 'TenGigabitEthernet1/1/26']

I have mentioned in the comments that you can use database connection with raw SQL. Here is an example for you:
from django.db import connection
# Create a connection with your database
cursor = connection.cursor()
# Execute your raw SQL
cursor.execute("CREATE TABLE NameTable(name varchar(255));")
# Create database records
cursor.execute("INSERT INTO NameTable VALUES('ExampleName')")
# Fetch records from the database
cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM NameTable")
# Get the data from the database. fetchall() can be used if you would like to get multiple rows
name = cursor.fetchone()
# Manipulate data
# Don't forget the close database connection
cursor.close()
This is just a basic example about database connection in Django. Customize it depending on your needs. Here is the official documentation for raw SQL and database connections. Also keep in mind that what you are trying to do may not be the best practice or recommended.
