If you want to use ASP.NET Identity with Entity Framework in your application, you need to add the following dependencies:
"EntityFramework.Commands": "7.0.0-rc1-final",
"EntityFramework.MicrosoftSqlServer": "7.0.0-rc1-final",
"Microsoft.AspNet.Authentication.Cookies": "1.0.0-rc1-final",
Create an appsettings.json file and store the database connection string.
Create a file with the name appsettings.json at the root level of the project, as shown in the following screenshot:
Store the following connection string in appsettings.json. This connection string will be used by ASP.NET Identity to store the data in relevant tables:
{
"Data": {
"DefaultConnection": {
"ConnectionString": "Server=(localdb)\\mssqllocaldb;Database=aspnet_security;Trusted_Connection=True;MultipleActiveResultSets=true"
}
}
}
