Why my Django-Rest-Framework post method do not have the fields?

In the Django-Rest-Framework API, I can not use post for testing, I don't know why there is no the post fields.

enter image description here

enter image description here

My View:

class WHMCSPhysicalServerIPMIManagementAPIView(APIView):
    serializer_class = WHMCSPhysicalServerIPMIManageSerializer
    permission_classes = [IsAdminUser]

    def post(self, request):
        """

        :param request:

        action:
        physical_server_name:

        :return:
        """

        try:

            physical_server_name = request.query_params.get('physical_server_name')
            action = request.query_params.get('action')

            if not physical_server_name or not action:
                return Response(data="invalid request data", status=HTTP_400_BAD_REQUEST)

            physical_server = PhysicalServer.objects.get(name=physical_server_name)

            msg = ipmi_management_handler({'action': action, 'physical_server_id': physical_server.id})

            return Response(data=msg, status=HTTP_200_OK)
        except Exception as e:
            return_data = "fail" if e.args == () else e.args[0]
            return Response(data=return_data, status=HTTP_200_OK)

My serializers:

class WHMCSPhysicalServerIPMIManageSerializer(Serializer):
    physical_server_name = serializers.IntegerField(write_only=True)  
    action = serializers.CharField(write_only=True) 
    whmcs_user_id = serializers.IntegerField(write_only=True)

My url:

urlpatterns = [
    url(r'^whmcs/physicalserver/ipmi_management/$', WHMCSPhysicalServerIPMIManagementAPIView.as_view(), name='whmcs-physicalserver-ipmi_management'),
]

I think there is a bit of confusion here. The POST data is in request.data / request.post.

For a simple example have a look at the docs.

You're using an APIView and you didn't implement the GET method, so DRF won't be able to render the API interface with the fields you want to post. It'd be appropriate for you to use CreateAPIView for that.
