How to change the Serializer to adjust the search results?

Question

Django

Hello everyone once again.

There is the following code:

class BasicListAPIView(generics.ListAPIView, CustomMixin):
    serializer_class = BasicSerializer

    permission_classes = [IsAuthenticated]

    def get_queryset(self, *args, **kwargs):
        '''Search'''
        qs = List.objects.all()
        query_name = self.request.GET.get("name")

        if query_name is not None:
            qs = qs.filter(name__icontains=query_name).distinct()

        return qs

class BasicSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
    class Meta:
        model = List
        fields = [
            'id',
            'name',
            'creator',
            'type',
            'description',
            'start_date',
            'end_date',
            'created_date',
            'is_active',
            'is_finished',
            'is_public',
        ]
        #read_only_fields = []

I need to edit the information in the 'creator' variable, obtained from the field'a of the List model, when issuing in JSON format.

Can you tell me which method in the serializer should be rewritten and how?
Thanks in advance.
