We just learned how to implement a basic token authentication in. Here are reference articles that shows the same.
#GENISYS 5.0 WHERE IS AUTHORIZATION CODE CODE#
You can extend the code here to use it with ASP.NET Core Identity and Entity Core. Using token authentication with ASP.NET Core Identity and Entity Framework Core. You can copy the token received in the login response and use Authorization: BearerĪnd you will be able to access WeatherForcast service. Since OpenAPI documentation do not support setting up headers, we can use Postman tool to test the same. Now that we have configured ASP.NET Core to use token authentication, we should be able to use the token issued by Login method to access WeatherForcast. Testing weatherForcast service with authentication Next, in the Configure method, add app.UseAuthentication() before app.UseAuthorization() if not present. In order to configure ASP.NET Core to use token authentication as the default authentication scheme and how to validate in coming tokens, add following to your CofigureServices method. The error means ASP.NET Core do not know how to authorize the request since we added authorization attribute in WeatherForcast service. Once you hit execute, you will see following error.Ĭlass="post_text">The error says “System.InvalidOperationException: No authenticationScheme was specified, and there was no DefaultChallengeScheme found.” And it means we need some more configuration to make it work.Ĭonfigure token authentication in ASP.NET Core Scroll down to “WeatherForcast” section in the OpenAPI documentation and click on “GET /WeatherForcast” and click on “Try it out” in the top right of the expanded section and hit execute. Next, we want to test the WeatherForecast service that we secure earlier. You will see a success response with token and username as shown below. Enter body as shown in figure below and hit execute. Under Account, click on the “POST /Login” and click try it out in the write. Run the project and you will see an Open API documentation as shown below. you can use attribute to ensure the user passes JWT token in order to access the method. Open “WeatherForcastController.cs” and above Get() method, add this line and this will enforce the method will be only accessible if JWT token is present in the header and the user for which the token is generated belongs to Role1. Securing resources using JWT Authentication Open appsettings.json and add following configurations at the end of file:Īdd new empty controller in the “Controllers” folder of your project and name it AccountController and add following code into it. That will be used for JwtIssuer value in app settings. Run your application once and copy the url of your application. In the “Additional information” step, choose “.NET 5.0 in “Target Framework” dropdown, None in “Authentication Type” and click on createĪdding JWT configurations in appsettings.json In the “configure your new project”, enter name, location, and solution name of your project and click next. Open visual studio 2019 community and click on “create a new project” and select “ASP.NET Core Web API” project and click next.
