Hey all.
I have problem which i dont quite understand how to go about from here.
I use request library to sign-in to website and I believe im doing that right. I make a post request to /sign-in page and response to the POST request is following

b'{"token":"eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJleHAiOjEuNTYzOTkyOTMzRTksImFwaV90b2tlbiI6ImFmYmRmZGRmMmVmMDRjYTE4NmUxZmQ2ZWU5MWM3MmE4IiwiZW1haWwiOiJwY2FicmVyb0BnbWFpbC5jb20iLCJ1dWlkIjoiNDdkYjEzYTMtY2ZkYy00NmRmLWE3OTgtYmUzMjI1MDcxYThiIn0.VQdYwBWlEkqewFQd72K2BA4Zd9aP6mQ_42uYsDgx9Ao","auth_token":"CNxnJqAuUPeeH12TB3BEaE1lU1LR4+8gkaQQjDGRoxkJ3ApQrgNXGAMwu5t8TvevBnjHp31XLNQvtonJEaJUtQ=="}'
I basically expecting some html back if the login was successful. But instead I get these token. What do I do with these token from here. My code looks like this.

with requests.Session() as s:
    url = "https://app.nutmeg.com/auth/users/sign_in"
    url2 = "https://app.nutmeg.com/client"
    r = s.get(url, headers=headers)
    soup = BeautifulSoup(r.content, 'html5lib')
    login_data['authenticity_token'] = soup.find('input', attrs={'name': 'authenticity_token'})['value']
    r1 = s.post(url, data=login_data, headers=headers)
    r2 = s.get(url2, headers=headers)
    print(r2.content)
any help would be much appreciated

Thanks

Just to add more information. Im trying to login to nutmeg account.

Probably the site you are parsing is a kind of SPA application. This kind of sites don't return HTML as a response, they work over AJAX and receive only JSON.
