Hey Django Community!

I'm newer to programming and was pointed in the direction of django for this project.

The idea is that people can make their own custom queries and download load it from my db.

So far I'm thinking that using a form is they way to go to accept this information.  But from there I'm a little confused.  Does a custom model need to be created automatically before that query can be requested and displayed?  Or can model be skipped in this case?

The Q is very abstract and you need to refine it if you need better guidance.

From what I understand, it looks to me that you have a database and have been asked to provide an interface from which customers can download data. If yes, the best possible way to have filters so that customers can define their queries based on these filters and download the related dataset. Do NOT expose an interface by which customers can key-in a SQL and download data.

More on hearing from you.
