FWIW, Lexicon is not abandoned and is still under active development.

@Roie_Natan if you are familiar with Javascript, you could look at Lexicon’s source code to see how it was accomplished.

            this.getCSRF()
              .then((json) => {

                  AsyncStorage.getItem('@Discourse.loginCookie').then(
