Description
By default allow_blank is set to False:
http://www.django-rest-framework.org/api-guide/fields/#charfield
Optional fields that do not have this set to True have a minlength field in the schema:
description: {
title: "Description",
description: "An optional description.",
type: "string",
minLength: 1
},
So when the field is not being sent in a request, the request fails validation.
Every CharField that does not have required=True should have allow_blank.

allow_blank for optional fields
Added allow_blank=True to all CharField serializers that are not required.
