 If using namespacing with hyperlinked serializers you'll also need to ensure that any `view_name` parameters on the serializers correctly reflect the namespace.
 In the example above you'd need to include a parameter such as `view_name='app_name:user-detail'` for serializer fields hyperlinked to the user detail view.
