How are you creating the JwtSecurityToken? It seems likely the signingCredentials are made with a key that is 136 bits insted of 512

Im sorry... i dont now how to do that stuff im likely new to github

Is this code on github?

IbraDev💻OP•11mo ago

yes but private so i found out when i change my "My secret key" its always ends in an exception bc i use more bits or less bits

no worries. I'm no expert, but I think it's in how you're creating the token . You might have more success with this

var tokenHandler = new JwtSecurityTokenHandler();
var tokenDescriptor = new SecurityTokenDescriptor
{
    Issuer = "yourdomain.com",
    Audience = "yourdomain.com",
    Claims = user.Claims, // Add any custom claims here
    Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(1),
    SigningCredentials = cred
};
var token = tokenHandler.CreateToken(tokenDescriptor);
var jwt = tokenHandler.WriteToken(token);

var tokenHandler = new JwtSecurityTokenHandler();
var tokenDescriptor = new SecurityTokenDescriptor
{
    Issuer = "yourdomain.com",
    Audience = "yourdomain.com",
    Claims = user.Claims, // Add any custom claims here
    Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(1),
    SigningCredentials = cred
};
var token = tokenHandler.CreateToken(tokenDescriptor);
var jwt = tokenHandler.WriteToken(token);

so which part do have to replace it with

lycian•11mo ago

your new JwtSecurityToken should be made with CreateToken

IbraDev💻OP•11mo ago

the same exception

If your code is too long, you can post to https://paste.mod.gg/ and copy the link into chat for others to see your shared code!
