Follow the above link to create an app and get the clientId and secret from google. and AppId and App secret from facebook.

Facebook Alone

To integrate login using facebook alone just add the below lines 

In ConfigureServices method

 services.AddAuthentication(op=> {
                op.DefaultChallengeScheme = FacebookDefaults.AuthenticationScheme;
                op.DefaultSignInScheme = CookieAuthenticationDefaults.AuthenticationScheme;
                op.DefaultAuthenticateScheme = CookieAuthenticationDefaults.AuthenticationScheme;
            })
                .AddFacebook(op => {
                    op.AppId = "";
                    op.AppSecret = "";
                })


In Configure method
 app.UseAuthentication();

In the Layout Page

 <ul class="navbar-nav flex-grow-1">
                        @if (User.Identity.IsAuthenticated)
                        {
                            <li class="nav-item">
                                <a class="nav-link text-dark" asp-area="" asp-controller="Home" asp-action="Index">Home</a>
                            </li>
                            <li class="nav-item">
                                <a class="nav-link text-dark" asp-area="" asp-controller="Home" asp-action="Privacy">Privacy</a>
                            </li>
                            <li class="nav-item">
                                <a class="nav-link text-dark" asp-controller="auth" asp-action="signOut">SignOut</a>
                            </li>
                        }
                        else
                        {
                            <li class="nav-item">
                                <a class="nav-link text-dark" asp-controller="auth" asp-action="signIn">SignIn</a>
                            </li>
                        }
                        
                    </ul>
The SignIn link will be shown when the User is not signed in and clicking on it will redirect the user to the signIn method in the AuthController.

AuthController

[Route("signin")]
        public IActionResult SignIn()
        {
            return Challenge(new AuthenticationProperties() { RedirectUri="/"});
        }

It is necessary to specify the redirectUri else after login the call there will be an infinite loop as after the user is authenticated the call comes back to the signIn method. So we need to redirect the user from this method once the user is signed in.

 [Route("signout")]
        public async Task<IActionResult> SignOut()
        {
            await HttpContext.SignOutAsync(CookieAuthenticationDefaults.AuthenticationScheme);
            return RedirectToAction("Privacy","Home");
        }

User claims can be viewed by using the folowing code

<h1>Welcome @User.Identity.Name</h1>
<ul>
    @foreach (var item in User.Claims)
    {

        <li><em>@item.Type : </em> <em> @item.Value</em> </li>
    }
</ul><h1>Welcome @User.Identity.Name</h1>
<ul>
    @foreach (var item in User.Claims)
    {

        <li><em>@item.Type : </em> <em> @item.Value</em> </li>
    }
</ul>

Multlple Social Login Providers

To integrate more than one social logins we need to make a few change to the above code.

 services.AddAuthentication(op=> {
                op.DefaultChallengeScheme = CookieAuthenticationDefaults.AuthenticationScheme;
                op.DefaultSignInScheme = CookieAuthenticationDefaults.AuthenticationScheme;
                op.DefaultAuthenticateScheme = CookieAuthenticationDefaults.AuthenticationScheme;
            })
                .AddFacebook(op => {
                    op.AppId = "";
                    op.AppSecret = "";
                })
                .AddGoogle(op => {
                    op.ClientId = "1";
                    op.ClientSecret = "";
                })
                .AddCookie(op=> {
                    op.LoginPath = "/auth/signIn";
                });

I have added google authentication to this application. So update the ConfigureServices method to allow google authentication. Notice DefaultChallengeScheme  has been changed to use cookie authentication , so that facebook authentication isnt being used as default.

In the Auth SignIn method we will not be issuing a challenge but redirecting to a view that will give the users the option to select a method to login. Modify SignIn method and add a view called signIn in the Auth Folder under the Views folder.

 [Route("signin")]
        public IActionResult SignIn()
        {
            //return Challenge(new AuthenticationProperties() { RedirectUri="/"});

            return View();
        }

Code for SignIn.Cshtml

@inject Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authentication.IAuthenticationSchemeProvider scheme


@foreach (var item in await scheme.GetRequestHandlerSchemesAsync())
{
    <a class="btn btn-primary login-button" asp-action="SignIn" asp-route-provider="@item.DisplayName">@item.DisplayName</a>

}

We Inject the IAuthenticationSchemeProvider  bcoz we need the registered login schemes.

Once a user click on a Scheme the User is redirected to the screen where  He/She is asked to enter the credentials and upon successful authentication the user is redirected to the Home?index page where all the claims are displayed.

Application security groups Application security groups enable you to configure network security as a natural extension of an application's structure, allowing you to group virtual machines and define network security policies based on those groups. You can reuse your security policy at scale without manual maintenance of explicit IP addresses. The platform handles the complexity of explicit IP addresses and multiple rule sets, allowing you to focus on your business logic. To better understand application security groups, consider the following example: In the previous picture,  NIC1  and  NIC2  are members of the  AsgWeb  application security group.  NIC3  is a member of the  AsgLogic  application security group.  NIC4  is a member of the  AsgDb  application security group. Though each network interface in this example is a member of only one network security group, a network interface can be a member of multiple app...

Azure AD Authentication And Authorization

ROLE BASED AUTHORIZATION Step1:   Setup  API. 1. Create an app registration and create an app role. Make sure that the app role is assigned to user and applications. We add it to both user groups and applications as this role can be then assigned to both users and applications. Scopes can only be assigned to apps. Now we can have only users with this role access our application. This app role behind the scenes adds an approles section to the manifest.json. We can directly add it to the manifest file also. Step 2:  Setup an app registration for the UI/ WEB App. . We will grant this app the read role created in the API app (shown above). Go to Azure AD and select the UI app registration. When we register an application 2 elements get created. 1. App registration  2. Enterprise Application -- service principal that get created for the app Adding roles to applications Go to the App registration => API Persmissions => Add a Permission => My API's The My Api's sec...

ASp.net core 3.1 identity

It is just an extension to cookie authentication. We get a UI, Tables, helper classes, two factor authentication etc. Even EF and its database constructs. So instead of writing code for all of this we can just use these in built features. Extending Default Identity Classes Add a class that inherits from    public class AppUser : IdentityUser     {         public string Behavior { get; set; }     } Also change the user type in login partial.cs under shared folder Then add migrations and update db using migrations. We can customize further.  services.AddDefaultIdentity<AppUser>(options =>              {                 options.SignIn.RequireConfirmedAccount = true;                 options.Password.RequireDigit = false;           ...
