Encoding for marshmallow Schema for japanese characters

Question

This is my simple flask-restful api. To get a name which is in Japanese. When I run this I get

{"name":"\u5317\u6d77\u9053"}

but expected

{"name":"北海道"}

Below is the code.

class Prefecture(Base):
      id=Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
      name=Column(String)

class PrefectureSchema(SQLAlchemyAutoSchema):
     class Meta:
         ordered:True
         model =Prefecture

class PrefectureApi(Resource):
    def get(self):
        schema=PrefectureSchema(many=True)
        values = Prefecture.query.all()
        return {schema.dump(values)

How to I change the unicode to characters before dumping it.I would like to continue using marshamallow as I would like to use the field.nested for my relationships. I tried to add configuration below but it didn't work.

app.config['JSON_AS_ASCII']=False

Answer 1

Adding

app.config.update(RESTFUL_JSON=dict(ensure_ascii=False))

Saved me lots of headache.
