ASP.NET Core 2.1 Persist HttpContext.User details once set










0















I am trying to persist some data that I intend on using in the application in my HttpContext.User. However, when I go to another page/controller and I recheck HttpContext.User, its empty again. Is there a way to set this as persistent? I am not using any form of identity as my application relies on jwt



public IActionResult Index()

var claims = new

new Claim("name", "Test"),
;
var identity = new ClaimsIdentity(claims, "basic");
HttpContext.User = new ClaimsPrincipal(identity);
return View();

  • HttpContext.User is not session. Please refer docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/security/… on how to setup authentication and authorization

  • So this is impossible? How does a non jwt .net core application persist user data? I don't see any sessions or cookies being used in the devtools of chrome.

  • What kind of authentication are you using / you need ? Cookie Based ?

  • When I login, I send my username and password to a rest api which returns a jwt token. I haven't set anything in my startup.cs. I'm quite lost now as I need to persist some items across the application but I cannot use stuff like Iauthorization as I use a rest api to validate a users role as well.
