Question: IdentityServer3 or 4 possible

[nigel-dewar]

Hi there,

Please excuse if this question has already been answered, I am BRAND NEW to the Umbraco community.

My query is, can UmbracoIdentityExtensions be used with IdentityServer3 or 4?,

And if so, is there any Umbraco sample hooked up with IdentityServer3 or 4 that one can reference?

Cheers

Hi There,

Just a friendly ping to see If I can get an answer on this. Doing some research for work to see how we can use Umbraco

Yes it will work but will require some configuration, i unfortunately don't have an example for you. Identity server uses OpenIdConnect so that is the provider you would need to use (similar to the Azure AD one: https://github.com/umbraco/UmbracoIdentityExtensions/blob/master/src/App_Start/UmbracoADAuthExtensions.cs )

[Shazwazza]

Might be worth asking on the forum if anyone has hooked this up: https://our.umbraco.org

[nigel-dewar]

Cool thanks for this. I can see now what I will need to do.

Should be sweet as hooking it up

Cheers mate.

I'd love to ship with an example of that too since it's probably a common provider people will want to use. Let me know how you go.

[nigel-dewar]

Thanks mate I certainly will.

and cheers again for the link, that had exactly what I needed to progress

@nigel-dewar Just as you asked someone in the community seems to have the answer:

Nice, though you don't need the Install-Package UmbracoCms.IdentityExtensions.Microsoft package, that is for the Microsoft OAuth provider, all you need is Install-Package UmbracoCms.IdentityExtensions and then install the package Microsoft.Owin.Security.OpenIdConnect

Great post, i'll link to the docs.

Thanks!
