Hello, According to the documentation: -https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/db/queries/#queries-over-related-objects
one can query using object instance or instance id: Entry.objects.filter(blog=b) # Query using object instanceEntry.objects.filter(blog=b.id) # Query using id from instanceEntry.objects.filter(blog=5) # Query using id directly Recently I got TypeError while querying using object instance, same query using id from instance works ok.
