In auth.views.py

from django.views import View

class HelloView(APIView):
    permission_classes = (IsAuthenticated,)

    def get(self, request):
        content = {'message': 'Hello, World!'}
        return Response(content)

Do below steps:
python manage.py migrate
python manage.py createsuperuser
pip3 install httpie
Generate Tokens by visiting webpage: http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/token/ OR from cli do curl -u username http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/token/
http http://127.0.0.1:8000/auth/hello/ "Authorization: Bearer "

After 5 minutes, access token will expire. We can get new access token using refresh token http post http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/token/refresh/ refresh=
