✅

As the name filtered_fields hints, it expects a collection of fields, not a single field. You thus should implement this as a list, tuple, set, or any other collection of strings, not a single string:

class StartUpViewSet(NestedViewSetMixin, ModelViewSet):
    # …
    filterset_fields = ('status',)

If you want to specify a custom FilterSet, you pass a reference to the class with:

class StartUpViewSet(NestedViewSetMixin, ModelViewSet):
    # no filterset_fields
    filterset_class = StartupFilter
