Problems with the response in API REST django - django

Question

I try to link django API-REST with a form that has an associated model. Everything works well until I do the:
return response.Response (serializer.data, status = status.HTTP_201_CREATED)
JavaScript
// To Save the Suggestion
let ajax_suggestion_save = function (type, url, data, context) {
let name_dm = $('#name-db-saved').val();
$.ajax({
type: type,
url: url,
data: data,
context: context,
beforeSend: function (xhr, settings) {
if (!csrfSafeMethod(settings.type) && !this.crossDomain) {
xhr.setRequestHeader("X-CSRFToken", csrftoken);
}
},
success: function (response) {
$.niftyNoty({
type: "success",
container: 'floating',
title: 'Your information was saved successfully.',
message: 'We much appreciate your interest of contact us, part of the growth of this platform it is base on your collaboration through your ideas.',
closeBtn: true,
timer: 4000
});
},
error: function (response) {
if (Object.keys(response.responseJSON).length >= 1) {
$.each(response.responseJSON, function (key, value) {
$.niftyNoty({
type: 'danger',
container: 'floating',
title: 'Ups, apparently we have problems saving your information.',
message: 'Please check the following ' +
'Error in <strong> ' + key + ' </strong>, with the following error <strong> ' + value + ' </strong>.',
closeBtn: true,
timer: 4000
});
});
} else {
$.niftyNoty({
type: 'danger',
container: 'floating',
title: 'Ups, apparently we have problems saving your information.',
message: 'Ups, apparently we have problems saving your suggestion. ' +
'If the problem persists, notify the system administrator in the help section.' +
'You suggestion <strong> ' + name_dm + ' </strong> not will be saved.',
closeBtn: true,
timer: 4000
});
}
}
});
};
$('#contactus').on('click', function (type, url, data, context) {
ajax_suggestion_save('POST', '/miscellaneous/api/contactus/create/', $("#contactus_form").serializeArray(), this);
});
Model
class DimContactUs(Model):
class Meta:
order_with_respect_to = 'email'
verbose_name = 'Contact'
verbose_name_plural = 'Contact'
id_contact_us = UUIDField(primary_key=True, default=uuid.uuid4, editable=False,
help_text='Universally unique identifier of a Contact')
name = CharField(max_length=100, help_text='Name of the Contact')
email = EmailField(max_length=70, help_text='Email of these Contact')
# id_user = ForeignKey(User, on_delete=CASCADE, help_text='Foreign Key of the User that made this Contact')
title = CharField(max_length=100, help_text='Title of the Contact')
message = TextField(
help_text='Short description of this Contact, e.g. : We want to include ...!')
url = URLField(null=True, blank=True,
help_text='Please copy the url associated to this Contact')
active = BooleanField(default=True, help_text='Do you want to make public this Contact?')
time_create = DateTimeField(auto_now=True, auto_now_add=False, editable=False, help_text='Time it was created')
time_stamp = DateField(auto_now=True, auto_now_add=False, help_text='Time of last modification')
def __str__(self):
return self.title
Serializers
class DimContactUsSer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
class Meta:
model = DimContactUs
fields = '__all__'
View
class ContactUsCreate(CreateAPIView):
queryset = DimContactUs.objects.all()
serializer_class = DimContactUsSer
#csrf_exempt
def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
try:
if request.method == 'POST':
form = DimContactUsForm(request.POST, request.FILES)
serializer = DimSuggestionSer(data=request.data)
if form.is_valid() and serializer.is_valid():
serializer.save()
return response.Response(serializer.data, status=status.HTTP_201_CREATED)
else:
return response.Response(serializer.errors, status=status.HTTP_400_BAD_REQUEST)
except Exception as exception:
return response.Response(exception.args, status=status.HTTP_400_BAD_REQUEST)
Here, the response sends me to the REST API page instead of staying in the current one.

I would expect your missing the import statement for the module, I cannot see your import statements.
from rest_framework import status
