Getting an error while trying to create a SuperUser for Netbox thru Ubuntu, Whats my solve? - python-3.x

Question

I'm trying to get an instance of Netbox setup. I'm at the step where I need to create a super user.
As per documentation, I'm running source /opt/netbox/venv/bin/activate
and confirm i'm in the venv
Followed by python3 manage.py createsuperuser
What I get in response is
`You have 167 unapplied migration(s). Your project may not work properly until you apply the migrations for app(s): admin, auth, circuits, contenttypes, dcim, django_rq, extras, ipam, sessions, social_django, taggit, tenancy, users, virtualization, wireless.
Run 'python manage.py migrate' to apply them.

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Originally I was getting an error with my authorized users where I had forgot to put it in quotes. Fixed that, and this was the next error to come out.
I found the line in question, but I'm just not sure how I should change it to pass this command successfully?

See this part of your output:
You have 167 unapplied migration(s). Your project may not work properly until you apply the migrations for app(s): admin, auth, circuits, contenttypes, dcim, django_rq, extras, ipam, sessions, social_django, taggit, tenancy, users, virtualization, wireless. Run 'python manage.py migrate' to apply them.
Try applying your django migrations as prompted:
python manage.py migrate
This will install the necessary database tables where your new superuser will be stored.
