Get E-mail of User Authenticated with Microsoft Account in ASP.NET Identity

Question

I\'m using the ASP.NET Identity stuff that came with the new MVC 5 templates in VS2013. I\'ve configured external login providers so people can sign up using Google, Faceboo

Answer 1

1. Configure the scopes for Microsoft.

   var mo = new MicrosoftAccountAuthenticationOptions
   {
       Caption = "Live",
       ClientId = clientId,
       ClientSecret = clientSecret,
   };
   
   mo.Scope.Add("wl.basic");
   mo.Scope.Add("wl.emails");
   
   app.UseMicrosoftAccountAuthentication(mo);
   

2. Grab the email claim

   var identity = await AuthenticationManager.AuthenticateAsync(DefaultAuthenticationTypes.ExternalCookie);
   var emailClaim = identity.Identity.FindFirst(ClaimTypes.Email);
   

Hope this helps you.
