Dynamically Change Identity Database

I have an asp.net application which I am in the process of moving away from my historic custom authentication and migrating to asp.net Identity Framework.

It is a cloud based solution and previously when a user logged in, it was getting the connection string from a generic database after a lookup using the domain name.

However, once I have got the correct database name, how can I use this with Identity, as this is where the connection string is defined:

 public ApplicationDbContext()
        : base("MyConStringHere", throwIfV1Schema: false)
    {
    }

Currently I have a method which returns a connection string depending on the customers database:

  return new SqlConnection(connectionString);

But I was calling this before by passing the database name in my application, I am unsure how I can use this in the ApplicationDbContext()

Thanks

Just pass your connection string from your configurations:

 public ApplicationDbContext(string myClientConnectionString)
        : base(myClientConnectionString, throwIfV1Schema: false)
    {
    }

This is what I use in multi-tenanted application.
