In Views.py this the code in view.py def Save(request):

      if request.method == "POST":
            user=request.POST
            email=user.get("email")

                    data=json.dumps(postdata))

415 error code means that the media type is not supported. I think you can simply replace the json.dumps(postdata) by postdata. Looking at the requests library you don't need it:

r = requests.post('http://httpbin.org/post', data = {'key':'value'})
