To add all the required services by calling IServiceCollection.AddAuthorization
in the application startup code, you need to follow these steps:
- Open your application’s startup file (usually named
Startup.cs
). - Locate the
ConfigureServices
method within the startup class. - Add the
services.AddAuthorization()
line inside theConfigureServices
method. - Configure any additional authorization policies, if required.
Here is an example of how you can add authorization services in an ASP.NET Core application:
public class Startup
{
// ...
public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
services.AddAuthorization(options =>
{
options.AddPolicy("AdminOnly", policy =>
{
policy.RequireRole("Admin");
policy.RequireAuthenticatedUser();
});
options.AddPolicy("MemberAccess", policy =>
{
policy.RequireRole("Member");
policy.RequireAuthenticatedUser();
});
});
// Other service configurations...
}
// ...
}
In the above example, two authorization policies are added:
AdminOnly
policy requires the user to be authenticated and have theAdmin
role.MemberAccess
policy requires the user to be authenticated and have theMember
role.
These policies can then be used to protect specific controllers or actions using the [Authorize]
attribute.
