Model fields which have `editable=False` set, and `AutoField` fields will be set to read-only by default, and do not need to be added to the `read_only_fields` option.

**Note**: There is a special-case where a read-only field is part of a `unique_together` constraint at the model level. Here you **must** specify the field explicitly and provide a valid default value.
A common example of this is a read-only relation to currently authenticated `User` which is `unique_together` with another identifier. In this case you would declare the user field like so:
user = serializers.PrimaryKeyRelatedField(read_only=True, default=serializers.CurrentUserDefault())
Please review the [Validators Documentation](/api-guide/validators/) for details on the [UniqueTogetherValidator](/api-guide/validators/#uniquetogethervalidator) and [CurrentUserDefault](/api-guide/validators/#currentuserdefault) classes.

## Specifying additional keyword arguments for fields. ## Specifying additional keyword arguments for fields.
There is also a shortcut allowing you to specify arbitrary additional keyword arguments on fields, using the `extra_kwargs` option. Similarly to `read_only_fields` this means you do not need to explicitly declare the field on the serializer.
