This one really has me scratching my head as I can create a JWT. I can add an attribute to authorize a controller and see if I do not add an 'Authorization' 'Bearer (token)' to a header it will return a 401 unauthorized. However something as simple as getting the string of the token to get it's payload claims is not working.
So this works fine:
var token = Request.Headers["Authorization"];
This does not:
var token2 = await HttpContext.GetTokenAsync(JwtBearerDefaults.AuthenticationScheme, "access_token");
I have change the signature, hooked up the IHTTPContextAccessor in startup like so:
services.AddSingleton<IHttpContextAccessor, HttpContextAccessor>();
I can see that the IHttpContextAccessor has values, as well as the authorization key. I could have sworn this used to work easily in .NET Core 2.0 and now it doesn't. Is there a simple hookup I am missing in Startup or Program? At this point I am going to just get the data from Request.Headers. But that just feels like a hack.
