title: django rest api: JSON parse error - No JSON object could be decoded
body: <p>I'm using postman to create a POST request to my django view</p>
  
  <pre><code>@csrf_exempt
  @api_view(['POST'])
  def create_user(request):
      data = JSONParser().parse(request)
      serializer = CaretakerSerializer(data=data)
      if serializer.is_valid():
          serializer.save()
          return JSONResponse(serializer.data, status=201)
      return JSONResponse(serializer.errors, status=400)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but I get the following error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>{
    "detail": "JSON parse error - No JSON object could be decoded"
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When trying to print my request.body I get the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>------WebKitFormBoundaryrg1JNLvBOEfjkQAT
