Get object as output instead of List in Django

Question

I'm trying to get output result as an object but i'm getting result as a list.

My view:

def Expense_with_id(request, id):
    details = ExSerializer(Cat.objects.filter(id=id).all(), many=True).data
    return JsonResponse(details, safe=False)

Output:
    [{
      "id": 1,
      "category": 1,
       ...... 

     }]

I want my output to be :

Expected Output:

    {
      "id": 1,
      "category": 1,
       ...... 

    }

How can I achieve this with the current query.

remove many=True

Try using get instead of filter then remove many=True

ExSerializer(Cat.objects.get(id=id))

You are doing filter() instead of get().

use get() when you want to get a single unique object, and filter() when you want to get all objects that match your lookup parameters.
