Pass extra information to IProfileService

When implementing IS4, we want to have a couple of extra fields on the /Account/Login form (we're building off of the Quickstart UI). The data provided by these fields (location info - 1) building and 2) station within the building) needs to be accessible when IProfileService is called as they are pieces of information used to determine the claims to be provided in GetProfileDataAsync(). We tried storing the data in HttpContext.Items, but that data is lost since there is a redirect that occurs before IProfileService is called.

Do you have any recommendations for how to pass this data back to IProfileService?

One of the extension methods on the HttpContext, SignInAsync, allows you to pass in any extra login related claims. If you add ‘building’ and ‘building_station’ as claims when you call SignInAsync from the AccountController, you should be able to access it through the HttpContext.

To do this you need to add the HttpContextAccessor to the IProfileService implementation through dependency injection, and once you get the HttpContext from it you should be be able to locate the appropriate claims in HttpContext.User.
