I am trying to login to a page and access another link in the page.

```
payload={'username'=<username>,'password'=<password>}
with session() as s:
    r = c.post(<URL>, data=payload)
    print r
    print r.content

```

This is giving me a "405 Not Allowed" error.
I checked the post method details using chrome developer tools and could see an api (URL/api/auth).
I posted to that URL with the payload and it was working and i was getting a response similar to what i could see in the developer.

Unfortunately when trying to 'get' another url after login, i am still getting the content from the login page. 
Why is the login not sticking? Should i use cookies?
I am a newbie, so i don't really know how to work with cookies.
