Answer 1

I know this is an old post but I came across this and after some research and reading through the Django Rest Framework documentation So a quick search I found that you could use the "related_name" parameter for reverse relationships as stated here

reverse relationships are not automatically included by the ModelSerializer and HyperlinkedModelSerializer classes. To include a reverse relationship, you must explicitly add it to the fields list.

For example:

    class AlbumSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
        class Meta:
        fields = ['tracks', ...]

You'll normally want to ensure that you've set an appropriate related_name argument on the relationship, that you can use as the field name.

For example:

    class Track(models.Model):
        album = models.ForeignKey(Album, related_name='tracks', 
                on_delete=models.CASCADE)
     ...

If you have not set a related name for the reverse relationship, you'll need to use the automatically generated related name in the fields argument.

For example:

    class AlbumSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
       
        class Meta:
            fields = ['track_set', ...]

Also, see the Django documentation on reverse relationships for more details.
