let JWT do the authentification:

add 'drf_jwt.authentication.JSONWebTokenAuthentication' in authentication classes:

'DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES': [
    'drf_jwt.authentication.JSONWebTokenAuthentication',
]

make endpoints to login and get the JWT:

from drf_jwt.controllers import Auth

urlpatterns = [
    path('api/login', Auth.as_view()),
]
