Get username within startup.cs in Asp.net core

I'm using Asp.net Core Authorization and I need to get username within startup.cs but I got null.

public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)

{        

    // some code here

    services.AddHttpContextAccessor();

    services.TryAddSingleton<IHttpContextAccessor, HttpContextAccessor>();

    services.AddHttpContextAccessor();

            services.TryAddSingleton<IHttpContextAccessor, HttpContextAccessor>();

            Audit.Core.Configuration.Setup()

                .UseEntityFramework(_ => _

                    .AuditTypeMapper(t => typeof(AuditLog))

                    .AuditEntityAction<AuditLog>((ev, entry, entity) =>

                    {

                        var svcProvider = services.BuildServiceProvider();

                        var httpContext = svcProvider.GetService<IHttpContextAccessor>().HttpContext;



                        entity.AuditData = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(entry);

                        entity.EntityType = entry.EntityType.Name;

                        entity.AuditDate = DateTime.Now;

                        entity.AuditUser = httpContext.User.Identity.Name;

                    })

                .IgnoreMatchedProperties(true));

}

The application startup runs before any other middleware/handler/whatever runs, so whoever is executing the request that starts up the application isn't authenticated yet.

I suppose that AuditEntityAction is not run on startup, but only when audit event occurs - and therefore you do not have to worry to know user in startup code. @Javad do you have any errors with the code?

I'm using asp.net core authentication and I have no errors. when any insert/update occurs this line entity.AuditUser = httpContext.User.Identity.Name; and codes above run but username is null. idont know how to get username from jwt token if possible.

I found the problem why httpContext.User.Identity.Name is always empty. for each request to server the header should have Authorization header like below:

Key                Value

Authorization      Bearer ZQ0QZFANcPogvA...

without Bearer httpContext is always null. not bad to visit this link

It depends on the authentication method, for example if you use windows authentication user token is sended as cookie. Simply previously you have anonymous requests.
