Steam OpenId in MVC application

I have never done an openid application before. I did see that MVC 5 has some built in oauth sign ins. I was able to get these to work no problem, as they are already built.

But I am completely unsure how to get the steam openid to work in MVC. Does anyone have some sample code of there MVC Steam OpendID stuff? Or does anyone know a good tutorial for this?

Go to Tools > Library Package Manager > Package Manager Console and type:

Install-Package Owin.Security.Providers

Open your App_Start\Startup.Auth.cs, and add:

using Owin.Security.Providers.Steam;

Then, in the ConfigureAuth method, add:

app.UseSteamAuthentication("your API key");

You can get an API key from http://steamcommunity.com/dev.

A "Steam" button should be added to your login page.
