Answer 1

This is what i did to solve it, i included csrf token to the form and using jquery/ javascrip got the csrf token like this when document loaded

var $crf_token = $('[name="csrfmiddlewaretoken"]').attr('value');

the included it on jquery headers as follow

 $.ajax({
            type: "POST",
            url: "/api/endpoint/",
            data: newEndpoint,
            headers:{"X-CSRFToken": $crf_token},
            success: function (newEnd) {
                console.log(newEnd);
                add_end(newEnd);
            },
            error: function () {
                alert("There was an error")
            }
        });
