This doesn't match what you posted on ServerFault. When you posted
there you had:
def post_authentication_api(request):
If you really do have a 'self' first argument for a function which
isn't a method of a class, it is obvious you are going to get:
Exception Type: TypeError at /auth/post_authentication_api
Exception Value: post_authentication_api() takes exactly 2 arguments
(1 given)
as you indicated on ServerFault.
Have you tried dropping the 'self' argument?
