I need to obtain Rinkeby DAI token with this token address:

0x8f2e097e79b1c51be9cba42658862f0192c3e487

I tried a faucet and https://rinkeby.uniswap.exchange/swap - both give me a different token (however with the same token symbol "DAI").

    It is hard to say without knowing where you got this address from. The contract is not verified on Etherscan: rinkeby.etherscan.io/address/…. If you can find out the ABI of the contract, there is probably some kind of deposit function to mint you DAI.

You can get DAI via compound!

This DAI has this address, not the one you have been looking for, but in 2020 it maybe different:

https://rinkeby.etherscan.io/token/0x5592ec0cfb4dbc12d3ab100b257153436a1f0fea

Just visit compound with metamask being on rinkeby:

https://app.compound.finance/asset/

  1. go to "Supply" and click the desired token
  2. in the modal go to "Withdraw"
  3. click on "FAUCET", you will get 100 token

Picture is for USDC, but same with DAI

I think there's no "DAI faucet", what you need to do is to get ether from a faucet and then you need to interact with DAI contract to send ETH into their contract, and then you'd receive DAI

Here's a guide that might help you: https://github.com/makerdao/developerguides/blob/master/dai/dai-in-smart-contracts/dai-in-smart-contracts.md
