ValueError not enough values to unpack (expected 4, got 2) - Django

I have this view:

def getData():
    response = requests.get("https://path.to/api/")
    data = response.json()
    random_data = [MyModel(name=name, street=street, email=email, phone=phone) \
     for name, street, email, phone, in data.items()]
    MyModel.objects.bulk_create(random_data)

@require_http_methods(['GET', 'POST'])
def index(request):
    datas = getData()
    return render(request, 'index.html')

When I access the specified url for index method, it throws me this:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/user/.virtualenvs/myproj/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/core/handlers/exception.py", line 34, in inner
response = get_response(request)

for name, street, email, phone, in data.items()]
ValueError: not enough values to unpack (expected 4, got 2)
[18/Aug/2019 15:18:05] "GET /api/index/ HTTP/1.1" 500 85435
Method Not Allowed (HEAD): /api/index/

From this error, I think that the resulting json response from the api might be the problem, since some of these items are kind of nested into the resulting json

Here's an example response:

random

Any ideas?

def getData():
    response = requests.get("https://path.to/api/")
    data = response.json()
    random_data = [MyModel(name=x['name']['first'], streer=x['location']['street'], email=x['email'], phone=x['phone']) for x  in data['results']]
    MyModel.objects.bulk_create(random_data)
