I am trying to access Django built-in request to get some important data and most of them coming through my custom middleware, that is why i need to access the request at any means.

this is my signal:

@receiver(post_save, sender=MyModel)
def create_journal(sender, instance, created, **kwargs):
    if created:
        # request.finance_data
        # Do something

But there is no argument like request so I need to extend whatever needed to get request here..

in the request, I have finance_data and I access that like this: request.finance_data

I know i can access it from view but my case will not solve in view, i need to access it in signal at any means

Can anyone help me please to get this?

If you need access to the request, the signal is not the appropriate place for whatever you're doing. Do it in the view – Daniel Roseman Oct 10 '19 at 15:48
