Delete User from db Django Rest_framework View function

I am pretty new to the django_restframework. I want to be able to delete users from the database when a DELETE request comes in.

Here is my Views:

class RetrieveUsersView(generics.ListCreateAPIView):    """Retrieves all Users"""    serializer_class = UserSerializer    authentication_classes = (authentication.TokenAuthentication,)    permission_classes = (permissions.IsAuthenticated,)      queryset = get_user_model().objects.all()  

Here is my Serializer:

class UserSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):    """Serializer for the users object"""      class Meta:      model = get_user_model()      fields = ('email', 'password', 'name')      extra_kwargs = {'password': {'write_only': True, 'min_length': 5}}        def create(self, validated_data):      """Create a new user with encrypted password and return it"""      return get_user_model().objects.create_user(**validated_data)      def update(self, instance, validated_data):      """Update a user, setting the password correctly and return it"""      password = validated_data.pop('password', None)      user = super().update(instance, validated_data)        if password:        user.set_password(password)        user.save()            return user  

Here is my Urls:

urlpatterns = [    path('create/', views.CreateUserView.as_view(), name='create'),    path('token/', views.CreateTokenView.as_view(), name='token'),    path('me/', views.ManageUserView.as_view(), name='me'),    path('all_users/', views.RetrieveUsersView.as_view(), name='all_users')  ]  

From my understanding Django rest has built in classes that allow DELETE requests. However when I view the api on the local host I am only able to view all the registered users based on my RetrieveUsersView class.

I would expect the url to be something like

/api/users/all_users/1 Then delete that one. I am bit confused on how to get that functionality.
