How Super user can access tokens of other users












1















I need to delete normal user account from superuser account. As user accounts are authenticated using token authentication, I think it will be needed to access user's token and pass it with the request header to make POST,PUT,DELETE actions on it.
So is there any way to access it? Or is there any other substitute way to implement this?

  • Can you redefine your question more clearly... You have a user account you need removed with an attached token, but you may still need access to that token once deleted?

  • No, that's exactly not my case. I have two types of user accounts. Normal user accounts and superuser account. I need to delete a user account from superuser account using DELETE request

  • But since all the user profiles are authenticated, we may have to provide authentication credentials to perform POST or DELETE requests

  • Or along with the POST or DELETE request, we should have to attach the authorisation header., ie the token value in this case
