I have 2 projects in my solution. First one is simple mvc project and the other one is web api. There was no pre-written code in web api. I put all logics myself. Now I want to add asp.net identity in the web api project. How can I do that? Thanks.

In your web api project, you can do this: 1. Create a DbContext class that looks like this:
public class DataContext : IdentityDbContext<IdentityUser>
{
public DataContext() : base("ConnectionStringLocal") { }
}
Add a connection string in your Web.config file
In Package manager console, do
Enable-Migrations,Add-Migration IdentityUpdate,Update-Database. This will create a database that has asp.net identity built in.
Please let me know if you have additional questions.

Thanks for this, I was searching the web why the add-migration command didn't generate any of the built-in aspnet identity tables. I forgot to inherit from
IdentityDbContext!
