500 when posting modelviewset django rest

I am trying to post data using DRF modelviewsets and Axios. I have tried a couple different options so far with the same result, 500. I am able to get data using axios.get but not able to post data. I am new to rest and using ajax so I apologize if it is something obvious.

Axios call

var csrftoken = Cookies.get('csrftoken');
        axios({
            method: 'post',
            url: "/api/schedules/create",
            data: {
                "emp": this.emp.emp,
                'start_time': this.startTime,
                "end_time": this.endTime,
                "date": this.today,
                "location": this.location
            },
            headers : {"X-CSRFToken" : csrftoken }
          })

    },

Serializer

class SchedSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):

    class Meta:
        model = Schedule
        fields = (
            'location',
            'emp',
            'date',
            'start_time',
            'end_time'
        )

View

class SchedViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
    queryset = Schedule.objects.all()
    serializer_class = serializers.SchedSerializer
