I am working in a small project using Angularjs and Django. I have two different models with its corresponding end points.

Python
class Skills(models.Model):
    skills = models.CharField(max_length=100)

    def __str__(self):
        return self.skills



  class Project(models.Model):
...
    required_skills = models.ManyToManyField(
            Skills, verbose_name="list of skills")
..


This is a copy of my skills end point

[
    {
        "id": 1,
        "skills": "Css"
    },
    {
        "id": 2,
        "skills": "HTML5"
    },
    {
        "id": 3,
        "skills": "Java"
    }
]


On the front page I have a form that uses $http.post service to send data to the database. When I project is created, it might require one skill or multiple skills. Here is where my confusion come, I can store I foreign key by sending the pk which in this case is id. However, since I am dealing with a many to many relationship, I can not figure out what is the best way to proceed. I have read the documentation and some online resources with any success. Also, the form has an dropdown menu with the list of skills.I got this values using $http.get. Please anyone has any idea of how to solve this issue?
