Authentication with the requests library not working

Trying to making HTTP Post, passing two params for authentication: user,password

import requests 
url = 'http://10.10.13.3:8000/api/login'
payload = {'user': 'admin', 'password': 'admin'}

response = requests.post(url,data=payload)
print response.url
print response.text

What's weird is, this code which is returning me, it's the same when I login with user/password wrong, but testing login on the website, it's working. Is this the right code to make post authentication?

you should replace data with json. l like this:

import requests 
url = 'http://10.10.13.3:8000/api/login'
payload = {'user': 'admin', 'password': 'admin'}

response = requests.post(url,json=payload)
print response.url
print response.text
