For unknown reasons, the token is not designed for url-safe, which means it might contain invalid characters when being passed through a url (for example, … Read more
Whenever you want to extend the properties of User.Identity with any additional properties like the question above, add these properties to the ApplicationUser class first like so: public class ApplicationUser : IdentityUser { public async Task<ClaimsIdentity> GenerateUserIdentityAsync(UserManager<ApplicationUser> manager) { // Note the authenticationType must match the one defined in CookieAuthenticationOptions.AuthenticationType var userIdentity = await manager.CreateIdentityAsync(this, … Read more
