How to return Object ID(primary key) on new record submit?

[Keith Pettit]

I'm using inlineformset_factory to create a database entry with child objects.  All works well for submiting a recording then returning to a record list.  But I need a way to submit the new record then continue editing the same document or reference it after submit.

I though there was something similar to doing a  "pk = obj.save()" but I can't seem to find the right way to do it.

Right now this is how I save my form/formset if you see any way I could approach this to get the database object id let me know.

# Parent Object (Ticket)
obj = form.save(commit=False)
obj.owner = request.user.get_profile()
obj.save()

# Child Items (Load)
formset = inlineformset_factory(Ticket, Load, fk_name="ticket", form=LoadForm)(request.POST, request.FILES, instance=obj)
if formset.is_valid():
   formset.save()



Thanks,

after doing the "obj.save()", the obj will have an "id" attribute.
