Implement OAuth 2.0 in web API using .net 6 - OWIN for token generation

Question

I want to implement token based authentication in .net web api for the clients. I am stuck as IAppBuilder is not available in .net 6. Can you please point me to articles/code where it is implemented for apis developed using .net core and .net 6?

Hi @Mahantesh Ambiger ,

If you want to add authentication for oauth in asp.net core 6, I suggest you could refer to below cods:

Modify the program.cs:

builder.Services.AddAuthentication().AddOAuth("Oauth", options =>  
{  
    // When a user needs to sign in, they will be redirected to the authorize endpoint  
    options.AuthorizationEndpoint ="";  
   
    // scopes when redirecting to the authorization endpoint  
    options.Scope.Add("openid");  
    options.Scope.Add("profile");  
    options.Scope.Add("email");  
  
    options.ClientSecret = "";  
  
});
