Hi, I am using a CreateView.  I want to create some related data on a table 
("Log" model), so I need the ID of the record being created for the related 
field (see "flow" below).  Also I need the ID of the user creating the 
record.  Something like the following:

from django.utils import timezone
from django.views.generic.edit import CreateView
from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required
from flow.models import Flow, Log

class CreateFlow(CreateView):
    model = Flow
    fields = ['state']
    template_name = 'create_flow.html'
    # there is a problem with this:
    @login_required
    def form_valid(self, form):
        form.instance.created_by = self.request.user
        # ... and this:
        log = Log(user=self.request.user.id, flow=id, state=1, 
created=timezone.now)
        log.save()
        return super(CreateFlow, self).form_valid(form)
