How to find user Information by token

[Prince Dewangan]

hi there,

     i am new Django and i have managed to build a small Api using DRF. I have        my angular client end posting user auth details and DRF returns a          token after login. so question is if posible to find user by token ? if          possible how i can get user information like {

   id, username, firstname, etc..}

I dont know about built in token authenitication but you can easily do it with simpleJWT, decode token on client side to get user id, then you can create endpoint for retreiving user details.
