Answer 1

Your own comment is right. You just included the index url before. And that main view recieve url parameter for retreiving objects, so your new view is interpreted as param. I had the same problem in urls.py:

router = DefaultRouter()
router.register(r'', views.MainViewSet, basename='index')
router.register(r'other_view', views.OtherViewSet, basename='typeservice')

Solution:

router = DefaultRouter()
router.register(r'main', views.MainViewSet, basename='index')
router.register(r'other_view', views.OtherViewSet, basename='other_view')
