[Fixed]-Can django authentication be combined with django rest framework basic auth?

1👍

The great thing about DRF is that it supports multiple authentication schemes. By default it uses session + basic auth (exactly what you need).

'DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES': (
    'rest_framework.authentication.SessionAuthentication',
    'rest_framework.authentication.BasicAuthentication'
),

where SessionAuthentication is reusing the standard django auth flow (username/pass) + support basic auth.
