django-ninja endpoint for post

Question

I am a beginner in programming, I use Django + Django ninja in my project. Now stuck on the moment of creating endpoints I'm trying to make a filter to add tags to an article and check if the tag exists. Here is the piece of code I'm currently working on:

    @router.post('/article', response={200: schema.ArticleOut, 500: schema.Error})
    def create_article(request, tags_id: List[int], payload: schema.ArticleIn):
        try:
            for tag in tags_id:
                if tag > 0:
                    qs = models.Article.objects.create(**payload.dict())
                    qs.save()
                    current_article = get_object_or_404(models.Article, pk=qs.id)
                    e = models.Tag.objects.get(pk=tag)
                    current_article.tags.add(e)
                    return 200, qs
                else:
                    return 500, {'msg': 'No Tags'}        
        except:
            return 500, {'msg': 'Not'}

Tell me, does it make sense to do this in the request, if so, how best to implement it? Maybe there are other approaches?

my brother helped me, he came with this solution:

def create_article(request, tags_id: List[int], payload: schema.ArticleIn):
    try:
        tags = models.Tag.objects.filter(pk__in=tags_id)
        qs = models.Article.objects.create(**payload.dict())
        qs.save()
        qs.tags.set(tags)
        return 200, qs
    except Exception as e:
        return 500, {'msg': f'Not: {str(e)}'}
