Django is a python web framework. Django Rest Framework (DRF) is a plugin that 
facilitates adding a REST Api. It’s the most popular plugin for this,  but it’s 
not the only way to do it.

When I did this before there was an explicit call to get the token - the django 
developer created it. They may have used the default path, I’m not sure 
(/get-token)  I used the 4D command :
HTTP AUTHENTICATE($user;$password)
for the request to get the token.

Thereafter I used the token in the header and built the headers using arrays 
with HTTP Request… In my case the format for the header was:

Header Name: Authorization, Header Value : Token <token value>
