The view definitely does not populate on my end but password_reset_confirm.html in the demo template folder seems to do that.
password_reset_confirm_form.html
urls.py
path("dj-rest-auth/password/reset/confirm/<str:uid>/<str:token>/",
# TemplateView.as_view(template_name="password_reset_confirm.html"),
PasswordResetConfirmView.as_view(),
name='resend-email-verification'
),
Edit: maybe this webpage here is not the same page in django-rest-auth demo folder.
In django, it is defined as (in django code):
urls.py
path('reset/<uidb64>/<token>/',views.PasswordResetConfirmView.as_view(),name='password_reset_confirm'),
path('reset/done/',views.PasswordResetCompleteView.as_view(),name='password_reset_complete')
Then, you can customize according to your need and override it by inheriting it in your own views.py file.

What I am seeing is UI of browsable API of django rest framework that does not have this functionality for reading url and populating form field unless I tell it to.
For it to do this, I created templates/rest_framework/api.html file and inserted following code inside it:
api.html
{% extends "rest_framework/base.html" %}
{% block style %}
{{ block.super }}
<style>
#btn-link {
border: none;
outline: none;
background: none;
display: block;
padding: 3px 20px;
clear: both;
font-weight: 400;
line-height: 1.42857143;
color: #A30000;
white-space: nowrap;
width: 100%;
text-align: left;
}
#btn-link:hover {
background: #EEEEEE;
color: #C20000;
}
</style>
{% endblock %}
{% block userlinks %}
{% if user.is_authenticated or response.data.access_token %}
<li class="dropdown">
<a href="#" class="dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown">
{% firstof user.username 'Registered' %}
<b class="caret"></b>
</a>
<ul class="dropdown-menu dropdown-menu-right">
{% url 'rest_user_details' as user_url %}
<li><a href="{{ user_url }}">User</a></li>
<li>
{% url 'rest_logout' as logout_url %}
<form action="{{ logout_url }}" method="post">
{% csrf_token %}
<button type="submit" id="btn-link">Logout</button>
</form>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
{% else %}
{% url 'rest_login' as login_url %}
<li><a href="{{ login_url }}">Login</a></li>
{% url 'rest_register' as register_url %}
<li><a href="{{ register_url }}">Register</a></li>
{% endif %}
{% endblock %}
{% block script %}
{{block.super}}
<script type="text/javascript">
var url_elements = window.location.pathname.split('/');
if (url_elements.length >= 3){
var uid = url_elements[url_elements.length - 3];
if (uid !== undefined){
$('input[name=uid]').val(uid);
}
var token = url_elements[url_elements.length - 2];
if (token !== undefined){
$('input[name=token]').val(token);
}
}
</script>
{% endblock %}
