django rest framework model serializers - read nested, write flat

Question

I have a situation where my client is attempting to write a representation that includes a list of fk\'s

{
languages: [1]
last_name: \"Beecher\"
settings: 1
stat         


        

Answer 1

The simplest thing that occurs to me is to override get_serializer_class() on your view for POST/PUT to return a modified serializer not specifying the depth parameter and using a PrimaryKeyRelatedField for your languages field.
