I am trying to use Postman to test my DRF end-point, but I always get an Authentication credentials were not provided. error. The end-point works properly, but I haven't found how to send the request from Postman.
I am able to get the token for the user:
But I always get the error when I try to use the token to send a request:
I set the Authorization Type to Inherit auth from parent.
This is the code for the view:
class AlbumViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
permission_classes = (permissions.IsAuthenticated,)
queryset = proxies.AlbumProxy.objects.all()
serializer_class = serializers.AlbumSerializer
filter_backends = (DjangoFilterBackend, SearchFilter, OrderingFilter,)
search_fields = ('name', 'description', 'company__name')
filter_fields = ('code', 'company')
def get_permissions(self):
if self.action == 'retrieve':
return []
return super(AlbumViewSet, self).get_permissions()
def retrieve(self, request, pk):
password = request.query_params.get('password', None)
try:
instance = proxies.AlbumProxy.objects.get(pk=pk)
except:
return Response({'success': False, 'code': 1})
if instance.access_code != password and password != settings.MASTER_KEY:
return Response({'success': False, 'code': 2})
instance_to_return = serializers.AlbumSerializer(instance=instance, context={'request': request}).data
instance_to_return.pop('access_code')
instance_to_return['success'] = True
return Response(instance_to_return)
This is my REST_FRAMEWORK constant from settings:
REST_FRAMEWORK = {
'DEFAULT_PERMISSION_CLASSES': ('rest_framework.permissions.IsAuthenticated',),
'DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES': (
'rest_framework.authentication.TokenAuthentication',
'rest_framework.authentication.SessionAuthentication',
),
'DEFAULT_FILTER_BACKENDS': ('django_filters.rest_framework.DjangoFilterBackend',),
'DEFAULT_PAGINATION_CLASS': 'rest_framework.pagination.LimitOffsetPagination',
'PAGE_SIZE': 20,
'DEFAULT_METADATA_CLASS': 'rest_framework.metadata.SimpleMetadata'
}
