ASP.NET Identity library - delete user does not delete their claims

Question

Hi all; I am using the ASP.NET Core Identity library in Blazor server side version 8. The library provides a page for a user to delete themselves from the system. When they are deleted - it does not delete any claims they have. How can I have it delete any associated claims? thanks - dave

Hi @David Thielen , I deduce you are using the default identity code generated by the blazor app template, so that you might also find the DeletePersonalData.razor in Components ->Account -> Pages -> Manage folder. Then I trust you will find that the default delete user action would only delete user account by await UserManager.DeleteAsync(user);

To delete the rows in the dbo.AspNetUserClaims table, we might manually add code below.

var claims = await UserManager.GetClaimsAsync(user);
var res = await UserManager.RemoveClaimsAsync(user, claims);

I had a test in my side which worked well for me.
