Issue with Database Queries in Authenticated Django API Calls despite JWT Verification about djangorestframework-simplejwt HOT 3 CLOSED

Are you using the stateless version of the authentication? https://django-rest-framework-simplejwt.readthedocs.io/en/latest/stateless_user_authentication.html

@billpull ,No, I'm not utilizing the stateless version of authentication. Specifically, I've configured the REST_FRAMEWORK settings with the following:, REST_FRAMEWORK = {
'DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES': (
'rest_framework_simplejwt.authentication.JWTAuthentication', )
}.
Can I use JWTStatelessUserAuthentication instead of JWTAuthentication in my project, even though I don't have multiple applications? I saw in the Simple-JWT documentation that 'JWTStatelessUserAuthentication' helps with single sign-on between separate Django apps that share the same token secret key. Is there are any specific considerations, or limitations associated with using JWTStatelessUserAuthentication in my project?

Yes, the stateless version will not perform the backend call. The backend call is simply to retrieve the User object. Django's default authentication method also does this with its session-state-backend cookie approach. Instead, the stateless approach will not make that call and utilize a custom User class that we define to return user attribute values. Please see the setting for how to override it.
