Queryset errors on any operation

[jmarshall9120]

I have a query set in the following view that throws an error.

The line x = workbooks_in_client.count() throws error:

ValueError: The QuerySet value for an exact lookup must be limited to one result using slicing.

Trying to slice like x = workbooks_in_client[0] also throws the error

here's the view

def home(request, client_name=None, workbook_name=None):

    user = request.user
    clients_in_user = Client.objects.filter(users=user)
    
    if clients_in_user.count():
        client = clients_in_user.filter(clientName=client_name) \
            if client_name else clients_in_user[0]

        workbooks_in_client = Workbook.objects.filter(client=client)
        x = workbooks_in_client.count()
        if x:
            workbook = workbooks_in_client.filter(workbookName=workbook_name) \
                if workbook_name else workbooks_in_client[0]
    
    context = {
        'user': user,
        'clientList': clients_in_user,
        'workbookList': workbooks_in_client,
        'currentClient': client,
        'currentWorkbook': workbook,
    }
    
    return render(request, "ClientDashboard/home.html", context)

here's the models

class Client(models.Model):

    users = models.ManyToManyField('User', blank=True)
    clientCode = models.CharField(max_length=100)
    clientName = models.CharField(max_length=200)

    def __str__(self):
        return self.clientName
    

class Workbook(models.Model):
    client = models.ForeignKey(Client, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
    workbookName = models.CharField(max_length=100)
    workbookLink = models.CharField(max_length=1000)

    def __str__(self):
        return self.workbookName

heres the debug output
