How to create a user profile for; 'RelatedObjectDoesNotExist: User has no userprofile' in Django
I need to create agents for my leads but I'm facing a challenge. When I execute my code it works, but when I want to create an agent this error pop's up. leads.models.User.userprofile.RelatedObjectDoesNotExist: User has no userprofile
This is my agents apps views.py
from django.views import generic
from django.contrib.auth.mixins import LoginRequiredMixin
from django.shortcuts import reverse
from leads.models import Agent
from .forms import AgentModelForm
class AgentListView(LoginRequiredMixin, generic.ListView):
template_name = "agents/agent_list.html"
def get_queryset(self):
return Agent.objects.all()
class AgentCreateView(LoginRequiredMixin, generic.CreateView):
template_name = "agents/agent_create.html"
form_class = AgentModelForm
def get_success_url(self):
return reverse("agents:agent-list")
def form_valid(self, form):
agent = form.save(commit = False)
agent.organisation = self.request.user.userprofile
agent.save()
return super(AgentCreateView, self).form_valid(form)
The 3rd line from the bottom is what I believe brings the error message. This is the full error message
Internal Server Error: /agents/create

Note: This is my first Django app and I'm still learning python. Any help will be highly apricated.
