The custom function is a property of the class, which can be accessed via self:

class StokeBulkUpdate(generics.APIView):

   def custom_function(self, list):
       return list

   def update(self, request,*args,**kwargs):
       data = self.request.data
       self.custom_function(data)

If you don't want to implicitly pass self to your method (like in your example), you need to use @staticmethod:

class StokeBulkUpdate(generics.APIView):

   @staticmethod
   def custom_function(list):
       return list

   def update(self, request,*args,**kwargs):
       data = self.request.data
       self.custom_function(data)
