Description

I am using model view set and register it with router. On /docs url, it shows only option button. It doesn't show request methods(eg. GET, POST etc). Similarly on clicking plugin button, it only shows option button, not request methods. I am not able to send get request. Since it shows field required error messages.

Research direction
Examine the template rendering the API docs (likely in the django rest framework docs app's templates) to see why only the OPTIONS method is displayed. Check the view that builds the context for the template to ensure all allowed methods are passed. Also review the 27 comments for potential hints or partial fixes.
