How to get current user id, if i inherits from IdentityUser?

I add some fields in IdentityUser like a

public class CustomUser: IdentityUser
    {
        public string field1 {get;set;}
        public string field2 {get;set;}
    }

after migration, on Sql Management studio i had all data, which i added with .OnModelCreating

But, How i can get any field from current authorized CustomUser (like a ID)

I try use

using Microsoft.AspNet.Identity;

CustomUser.Identity.GetUserId()

But it doesnt work.

Thanks for help!

In ASP.Net Core ,if your Controller inherits the Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.Controller, you could get the IClaimsPrincipal from the User property and get the actual "Id" of the user,

using System.Security.Claims;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Identity;

ClaimsPrincipal currentUser = this.User;
var currentUserID = currentUser.FindFirst(ClaimTypes.NameIdentifier).Value;

You can also get the data of all fields(include Id) from the database's User entity:

1.DI UserManager 

    private readonly UserManager<ApplicationUser> _userManager;

    public HomeController(UserManager<ApplicationUser> userManager)
    {
        _userManager = userManager;
    }

2.Use it like below:

var id = userManager.GetUserId(User); // get user Id
var user = await userManager.GetUserAsync(User); // get user's all data

You need to first save user data in claims and then get authorized user data.

Add Claims

var identity = new ClaimsIdentity(OAuthDefaults.AuthenticationType);
identity.AddClaim(new Claim(ClaimTypes.NameIdentifier, user.Id.ToString()));

Get Claims

var userId = (HttpContext.Current.User.Identity as ClaimsIdentity).Claims.FirstOrDefault(x => x.Type == ClaimTypes.NameIdentifier)
