The best way for token authentication is to pass it along with the request headers. Normally u can find the tokens in the cookies with the respective key name

I'm not sure that I understood you. I know sometimes it is inserted on an input hidden, but in this case it isn't. What do you mean is the post request shown on "Inspect element"? – Riccardo Feb 18 '18 at 16:49

The token is not stored in the html. It is stored in browser storages such as cookies or local storage – Chandan Kumar V Feb 18 '18 at 16:51

When you click on inspect element, navigate to application in the open window, there you can find these – Chandan Kumar V Feb 18 '18 at 16:52
