✅ Google External sign in using Identity
I want to learn how to implement a google external sign-in route (and Identity in general) in my
ASP.NET Web API but I can't find any recent tutorial on that topic. Microsoft's official tutorial is for RazorPages only and tells you to add AddAuthentication().AddGoogle() and everything should work. I want to create it for Web API because I need it for the React front end. I found a few tutorials but they are 3-5 years old. Can you suggest any tutorials on this topic or for Identity in Web API in general? Also, I used it about 2 years ago and I had to create routes like register and login by myself using userManager and signInManager etc, now the tutorial suggests using MapIdentityApi which serves pre-made routes which I can't modify. Is it a new way to use Identity or it's just made for simplicity in tutorial only?2 Replies
