Hi @Jerry Lipan ,

Can you tell us what value you want to store after successful login? Do you mean the user identity information? And for the login action, whether you are using the Asp.net Core Identity or not?

Best regards,
Dillion

Answer 1

In ASP.NET Core, what the best option to store the value after login successful?

The best option is following openly published standards. Ether implement identity or configure the authentication cookie middleware in the MVC Core project.

Introduction to Identity on ASP.NET Core
Use cookie authentication without ASP.NET Core Identity

Answer 2

What value? Please provide more information.

If the data is associated with the login in user account then add it as a claim on the user's token.
If it is cached data about the user then consider storing it either in a cookie (if you want cookies and it is not sensitive) or perhaps in memory using MemoryCache or out of process using a database.

Please use the Comment button to respond to answers instead of creating a new answer so we can associate your comment with an answer.

If you want to associate data with the user and it is sensitive then use the claim of the user. Refer to Claims Transformation for information on how to do this.

If it is just static data (like the user's preferences) then you probably would want to use a regular cookie or equivalent.
