views.py

def read_csv(request):
    csv_file = request.FILES['file']
    data = pd.read_csv(csv_file)
    i = list(data.head(0))
    context = {'loaded_data': i}
    return render(request, "WebApp/index.html", context)

Answer 1

You can use AJAX request to handle this. You can check this answer , which has a sample AJAX request. In the views.py file, you can handle the request by checking request.is_ajax() and return the context you produce from CSV file via JsonResponse . At the success part of the AJAX call, you can manipulate the dropdown DOM element. There is a good tutorial here . If you are not familiar with these, feel free to ask about the parts you are confused.

Answer 2

So data was in a list I just have to loop through <option> :

<select class="custom-select" id="inputGroupSelect01">
   {% for x in loaded_data %}
      <option value="{{ x }}">
             {{ x }}
      </option>
   {% endfor %}
</select>
