Hello I am trying to test Token Authentication i have implemented with DRF using httpie as per the tutorial in this following link
The following command:
http GET 127.0.0.1:8000/api/projects/ 'Authorization: Token b453919a139448c5891eadeb14bf1080a2624b03'
yields the following error.
usage: http [--json] [--form] [--pretty {all,colors,format,none}]
[--style STYLE] [--print WHAT] [--headers] [--body] [--verbose]
[--all] [--history-print WHAT] [--stream] [--output FILE]
[--download] [--continue]
[--session SESSION_NAME_OR_PATH | --session-read-only SESSION_NAME_OR_PATH]
[--auth USER[:PASS]] [--auth-type {basic,digest}]

[--traceback] [--default-scheme DEFAULT_SCHEME] [--debug]
[METHOD] URL [REQUEST_ITEM [REQUEST_ITEM ...]]http: error: argument REQUEST_ITEM: "Token" is not a valid value
So i decided to differ from the tutorial and made my request like this
http GET 127.0.0.1:8000/api/projects/ 'Authorization:b453919a139448c5891eadeb14bf1080a2624b03'
The following message was returned
HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized
Allow: GET, POST, HEAD, OPTIONS
Content-Type: application/json

}
Any assistance offered would be great. I am running on local machine at home.
