Django 2.0: Error with namespace in include()

In this particular line of code, I cannot get my namespace properly configured. I found documentation that says you cannot specify the app_name in the include, but it gets very confusing with all that is and isn't deprecated. Can someone give me the line that works? Here are some that in any case don't:

app_name='courses'

path('api/v2', include(router.urls, 'courses'), namespace='apiv2'), path('api/v2', include(router.urls), 'courses', namespace='apiv2')), path('api/v2', include(router.urls, app_name), namespace='apiv2'), path('api/v2', include(router.urls, app_name=app_name), namespace='apiv2'), path('api/v2', include(router.urls, app_name='courses'), namespace='apiv2'),

It's deprecated.

correct code for 2.0:

        path("api/v2/", include((router.urls, "courses"), namespace="apiv2")),

Change the import line to from django.urls import include, path
