无法设置 django-oauth-toolkit 身份验证

Question

I'm going to restrict my working rest_framework.views.APIView inherited class, to be visible only by authenticated users.
I made these modifications:

1. Added authentication_classes and permission_classes to my class:

class TestView(APIView):
    authentication_classes = (OAuth2Authentication,)
    permission_classes = (IsAuthenticated,)

    return Response("Hey there...")

2. Got an access_token from django-oauth-toolkit:

curl -XPOST "http://172.18.0.1:8000/oauth2/token/" \
-d 'grant_type=client_credentials&client_id=MY-CLIENT-ID&client_secret=MY-CLIENT-SECRET'
{"access_token": "Haje1ZTrc7VH4rRkTbJCIkX5u83Tm6", "expires_in": 36000, "token_type": "Bearer", "scope": "read write groups"}

3. Tried requesting the view without setting the access_token :

curl -XGET "http://172.18.0.1:8000/api/v1/test/"
{"detail":"Authentication credentials were not provided."}

4. Tried a new request with the access_token :

curl -XGET "http://172.18.0.1:8000/api/v1/test/" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer Haje1ZTrc7VH4rRkTbJCIkX5u83Tm6"
{"detail":"You do not have permission to perform this action."}

Should I do anything more to enable access_token authentication?

Note: I have installed these libraries in the environment:

Django==2.2.17
djangorestframework==3.12.2
django-oauth-toolkit==1.3.3

Note2: Forgot to say that rest_framework and oauth2_provider have been added to INSTALLED_APPS.

IMPORTANT EDIT:
This problem exists only if using "client credential grant" for authentication. check my own answer below.

Answer 1

In the end I found that OAuth2Authentication does not authenticate a user by its client_credential (accepts username/password pair with grant_type=password). so I wrote this custom authenticator. hope it helps other guys with the same problem.

from oauth2_provider.contrib.rest_framework import OAuth2Authentication
from oauth2_provider.models import Application


class OAuth2ClientCredentialAuthentication(OAuth2Authentication):
    """
    OAuth2Authentication doesn't allows credentials to belong to an application (client).
    This override authenticates server-to-server requests, using client_credential authentication.
    """
    def authenticate(self, request):
        authentication = super().authenticate(request)

        if not authentication is None:
            user, access_token = authentication
            if self._grant_type_is_client_credentials(access_token):
                authentication = access_token.application.user, access_token

        return authentication

    def _grant_type_is_client_credentials(self, access_token):
        return access_token.application.authorization_grant_type == Application.GRANT_CLIENT_CREDENTIALS

Try djoser for authentication in Django rest framework
