Breeze.WebApi2 Authentication Microsoft.AspNet.Identity

Now that AS.NET WebApi2 has an integrated authorization mechanism using tokens. How can we integrate this mechanism with Breeze.WebApi2. That is Breeze.WebApi2 and Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.

What I need is how to modify the project created using visual studio 2013 project wizard that is configured to use individual accounts in security into a breeze web api 2 server with the same security setup.

I tried it by creating a web api project with individual accounts security and then added breeze web api 2 server using nuget package but that was s bit confusing to me. A sample code or application would be more useful for me to get started. Thanks.

If you use the Authorize attribute you can also access the user data via the "User" variable. 

[BreezeController]
[Authorize]
public class NorthwindIBModelController : ApiController {

   [HttpGet]
   public IQueryable<Customer> CustomerList() {
     var userName = User.Identity.Name;

     var filter = filter on customers;
     var custs = ContextProvider.Context.Customers.Where({ some filter using userName});
   }

}
