This is an example of an API call (a GET method) using the requests Python library.

test_api.py

import requests
from urllib import urlencode

api_base_url = 'http://localhost:8001/api/1/'
api_token = '******************************************'

auth_header = {'Authorization': 'Token ' + api_token}
parameters = [('type', 'adcountry'), ('limit', 1000)]

request = requests.get(api_base_url + 'facebook/search/', params = urlencode(parameters), headers = auth_header)
print request.json()
