How do you access parent object values in an admin inline

[test]

For example:

class AnswerInLine(admin.TabularInline):

  model = Answers     

class QuestionAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):

  inlines = [AnswerInLine]

 I want to change the model in the AnswerInLine depending on what the QuestionAdmin value is

First save the request object in the parent of the inline, then use it in fk field in the inline. Here is an example:

Thanks for the response.

I'm still kind of confused.

So I save the request by overriding the function. Then I can only read the request by overriding a function in the inline. How do I change the model in the overrided function in the inline.

You save the object in the request so you can access it from the inline for further processing, like showing or hiding something

If you want to change "the model entirely", you should do several inlines (one per each model) and show the appropriate inline according to the object. Here is sample (untested) code:
