Answer 1

You should add those claims on identity validation phase. Please check similar implementation here: Server side claims caching with Owin Authentication

Answer 2

In your account controller, to get a valid authenticationManager, you should use Request.GetOwinContext().Authentication. Im affraid System.Web.HttpContext.Current.GetOwinContext().Authentication gets you a fresh authenticationManager instead of the current Owin context one

Answer 3

First you need to convert identity to claims identity and then try to get claim using identity type

(HttpContext.Current?.User?.Identity as ClaimsIdentity)?.Claims?.FirstOrDefault(x => x.Type == "urn:Custom:MasterUniqueId")?.Value
