Consider using the GenericAPIView instead as this will generate the documentation. It is a bit of a hack using this when the endpoint does not relate to a model, but it does work.

As an example, the following code will create an endpoint that only accepts post requests and is documented within swagger using the seralizer.

class SomeThing(GenericAPIView):
    serializer_class = MySerializer

    def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
        serializer = MySerializer(data=request.data)
        if serializer.is_valid() is False:
            return Response(serializer.errors, status=status.HTTP_400_BAD_REQUEST)

        res = do_magic(**serializer.data)
        return Response(res)
