[Answered ]-Django Update Object in Database

✅

You are not updating any fields, use form.cleaned_data to get the form field values:

Once is_valid() returns True, the successfully validated form data
will be in the form.cleaned_data dictionary. This data will have been
converted nicely into Python types for you.

if form.is_valid():
    t = Business.objects.get(id=business_id)
    t.my_field = form.cleaned_data['my_field']
    t.save()

Also, consider using an UpdateView class-based generic view instead of a function-based:

A view that displays a form for editing an existing object,
redisplaying the form with validation errors (if there are any) and
saving changes to the object. This uses a form automatically generated
from the object’s model class (unless a form class is manually
specified).
