Django rest auth email instead of username

Question

I have a django project in which I am using Django-rest-auth to do authentication. I want to use email with password to authenticate the user and n

Answer 1

I'm using this package too, and by call this config it worked for me:

ACCOUNT_AUTHENTICATION_METHOD = 'email'

Be careful about this config, this config belongs to django-allauth, see this:

class AuthenticationMethod:
    USERNAME = 'username'
    EMAIL = 'email'
    USERNAME_EMAIL = 'username_email'

The above class is the settings which is in allauth, so you should write 'EMAIL' in lower case.
