I am just a beginner in this api creating with python and I was trying to create an api to get the data and to post data.

But when I run the code, it gives me the error:

The screenshot of the error

Let me know if there is some error in the code or problem of the virtual environment. Would be very much grateful if the solution is also given.

you do not have an auto route to the get-method yet.
