        # extract csrf_token value
        token = response.css('input[name="csrfmiddlewaretoken"]::attr(value)').extract_first()
        # create a dictionary for form values 
        data = {
            'csrfmiddlewaretoken':token,
            'gstnum':'27ARFPS6606L1ZA'

Answer 1

Try this

token = response.css('input[name="csrfmiddlewaretoken"]::attr(value)').extract_first()
