Django rest framework model is not visible in admin site

I'm working on a simple DRF API and I can't seem to access one of my many models from the admin site, although I can access some models from the same Application, please help!

project/app/models.py looks something like this:

class ImportantModel(models.Model):
   name = # character field
   relation1 = # foreign key
   relation2 = # foreign key
   ...

class Contact(models.Model):
   information = # character field
   ...

The problem is I can see the Contact model(and multiple other models) from the admin site(http://localhost:8000/admin/) but ImportantModel is not showing. Thank you in advance.

Well I was in same problem because the problem is I registered my models in admin.py file but in a wrong way

wrong way:


from django.contrib import admin
from .models import Article
from .models import User

# Register your models here.
admin.register(Article)
admin.register(User)

And the right way is

right way:


from django.contrib import admin
from .models import Article
from .models import User

# Register your models here.
admin.site.register(Article)
admin.site.register(User)
