Is there a way to add claims in an ASP.NET Core middleware after Authentication?

Yes, it is possible to add claims in an ASP.NET Core middleware after authentication.

You can use the HttpContext.User property to access the authenticated user's claims identity, and then add or remove claims from it. Here's an example middleware that adds a new claim to the authenticated user's identity:

public class AddClaimMiddleware
{
    private readonly RequestDelegate _next;

    public AddClaimMiddleware(RequestDelegate next)
    {
        _next = next;
    }

    public async Task InvokeAsync(HttpContext context)
    {
        // Get the authenticated user's claims identity
        var identity = context.User.Identity as ClaimsIdentity;

        // Add a new claim to the user's identity
        identity.AddClaim(new Claim("MyClaimType", "MyClaimValue"));

        await _next(context);
    }
}

You can register this middleware in the Startup.Configure method:

public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IWebHostEnvironment env)
{
    // ...

    app.UseAuthentication();

    app.UseMiddleware<AddClaimMiddleware>();

    // ...
}

Note that this middleware must be added after the authentication middleware (app.UseAuthentication()), so that the user's claims identity is available. Also, keep in mind that adding claims after authentication may not be a good security practice, as it may affect the authorization rules applied to the user.

Examples

  1. ASP.NET Core add claims after authentication middleware

    Description: This query explores methods to add claims to a user's identity after the authentication process in ASP.NET Core middleware.

    using System.Security.Claims;
    using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http;
    
    public class ClaimsMiddleware
    {
        private readonly RequestDelegate _next;
    
        public ClaimsMiddleware(RequestDelegate next)
        {
            _next = next;
        }
    
        public async Task Invoke(HttpContext context)
        {
            // Add claims after authentication
            var claims = new List<Claim>
            {
                new Claim(ClaimTypes.Role, "Admin")
            };
    
            var identity = new ClaimsIdentity(claims, "custom");
            context.User.AddIdentity(identity);
    
            await _next(context);
