How do I get other claims of the user using ADFS?

Question

Hi

I am able to authenticate the user using ADFS and succeded in getting the user alias using the below statement. Since some time, i am looking for a way in getting the other claims of the authenticated user, like email, name, roles, username etc.

Any help on this would be appreciated.

string alias = ((MicrosoftAdfsProxyRP.MicrosoftPrincipal)HttpContext.Current.User).Alias;

Response.Write (alias);

Answer 1

The Claims way of getting the other claims is as follows.

IClaimsPrincipal claimsPr = (IClaimsPrincipal)(HttpContext.Current.User) From the claims principle you can get the ClaimsIdentityCollection through the IClaimsIdentity.

Get the IClaimsIdentity from the claimsPr.Identifies.

Then inspect all the claims present in the IClaimsIdentity using the Claims property.
