Current Authenticated User

To get the current authenticated user, you can use the get_current_user method from the django_axor_auth.users.utils module.

...
from django_axor_auth.users.api import get_request_user


@api_view(['GET'])
def some_endpoint(request):
    ...
    user = get_request_user(request)
    ...

The user object is attached to the request object by the ActiveUserMiddleware middleware. It differs based on the authentication method used.

• For app token based: request.active_token
• For session based: request.active_session
