How to cURL an Authenticated Django App?

Question

I\'ve a few APIs I\'d like to test with cURL. I tried doing a GET as follows:

curl --user username:password --request GET http://my_domain/get_result/52d6428         


        

Answer 1

To use the token with a get request, use

$CURL_BIN \
    -H "$DJANGO_TOKEN" \
    -X GET https://yourdjangowebsite.com/whatever/

I tried using -d with -X GET, however it resulted in weird socket behaviour on the server side (Heruko H18 errors).
