I used jquery for ajax in react, so in this case here is a solution :

let csrfcookie = function() {  // for django csrf protection
            let cookieValue = null,
                name = "csrftoken";
            if (document.cookie && document.cookie !== "") {
                let cookies = document.cookie.split(";");
                for (let i = 0; i < cookies.length; i++) {
                    let cookie = cookies[i].trim();
                    if (cookie.substring(0, name.length + 1) == (name + "=")) {
                        cookieValue = decodeURIComponent(cookie.substring(name.length + 1));
                        break;
                    }
                }
            }
            return cookieValue;
};

$.ajax({
       type: "POST",
       beforeSend: function(request, settings) {
                    if (!(/^http:.*/.test(settings.url) || /^https:.*/.test(settings.url))) {
                        request.setRequestHeader("X-CSRFToken", csrfcookie());
                    }
},
