Django extract string from [ErrorDetail(string='Test Message', code='invalid')]
You can get the string from the ErrorDetail Object in this way:-
>>> op = ErrorDetail(string='Value must be valid JSON or key, valued pair.', code='invalid')>>> op.title()'Value must be valid JSON or key, valued pair.'
You should try in your template
{% for error in serializer.amount.errors %} {{ error }}{% endofor %}But I do not understand why do you use django rest_framework with HTML templates. Rest framework is used for REST APIs which is definitely not this case. For this purpose use rather django.forms. It really does not make sense to use REST serializer directly rendered to the HTML template.

As the serializer's errors are in a list, so you have to handle it more preciously,I put a very straight forward and intuitive solution to get the string value from the object.
for key, values in serializers.errors.items(): error = [value[:] for value in values] print(error)Then you can get all error in a list. Though fields has multiple errors in list. so my code can extract string from ErrorDetail() objects.
