soup = BeautifulSoup(r.data.decode('utf-8'),'lxml')
cookie = r.getheaders().get('Set-Cookie')
str1 = r.getheaders().get('Set-Cookie')

Use requests module in python 3.x. You have to create a session which you are not doing now that's why you are facing problems.

import requests
s=requests.Session()
url ='http://ip:port/api/login'
r=s.get(url)
dct=s.cookies.get_dict() #it will return cookies(if any) and save it in dict

Take which ever cookie is wanted by the server and all the headers requested and pass it in header

jid=dct["JSESSIONID"]
head = {JSESSIONID="+jid,.....}
payload = {'userName':'id','password':'passoword'}
r = s.post(url, data=payload,headers=head)
r = s.get('whatever url after login')

To get info about which specific headers you have to pass and all the parameters required for POST

    Open link in google chrome.
    Open Developers Console(fn + F12).
    There search for login doc (if cannot find, input wrong details and submit).
    You will get info about request headers and POST parameters.
