What is the best way to pass another model instance back from a separate controller?

REST API - Modern Rails JSON Serializers - Which Ones To Use?
On the other hand, we have Active Model Serializers. This gem is also deprecated but has another stable version 0.10. I also found Blueprinter gem. I've never used it before and don't know its limitations.
What are some alternatives?

Grape - An opinionated framework for creating REST-like APIs in Ruby.
jbuilder - Jbuilder: generate JSON objects with a Builder-style DSL
Blueprinter - Simple, Fast, and Declarative Serialization Library for Ruby
rabl - General ruby templating with json, bson, xml, plist and msgpack support
graphql - Ruby implementation of GraphQL
Fast JSON API - No Longer Maintained - A lightning fast JSON:API serializer for Ruby Objects.
Version Cake - :cake: Version Cake is an unobtrusive way to version APIs in your Rails or Rack apps
Pliny - An opinionated toolkit for writing excellent APIs in Ruby.
JSONAPI::Resources - A resource-focused Rails library for developing JSON:API compliant servers.
