You can use the source argument in a serializer field.

https://www.django-rest-framework.org/api-guide/fields/#source

inventory_type_public_id = serializers.CharField( 

    source='inventory_type.public_id', required=False)

In the above example `inventory_type_public_id` becomes the new field name, but it's source is `inventory_type.public_id`. Notice that the source name is a dotted path from the object.
