Hi, This is a python problem - You are not using an instance variable for the select_fields variable, but a class variable. If you want to use it as an instance variable you need to change the code to this: class IncomingCallsReport(APIView):
def __init__(self): self.select_fields = ["uniqueid", "enterdate"] show_contact_details = settings.SHOW_CONTACT_DETAILS if show_contact_details: for i in range(11): self.select_fields.append("custom{}".format(i + 1)) This way you will get an instance variable. The code that you provided creates the select_fields variable on the class the first time the class is instanciated and not every time it is created.
