Is there a way to get the current logged in Windows user?

Hi, Is there a way to get the current Windows user in Radzen-Blazor Web assembly?

Although this thread is for Angular the code might be helpful in your case as well:

Default Windows Username and Date/Time Stamp

Hi Chris, If you want to get the current Windows user and date when creating new record you can use partial class with OnXXXCreated() partial method as described in this article: For example: public partial class OrdersController { partial void OnOrderCreated(Models.Sample.Order item) { item.UserName = System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name; item.OrderDate = DateTime.UtcNow; } } Best Regards, Vladimir

Doesn't Security.User contain what you need?

@Default Windows Username and Date/Time Stamp

System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name;

This will get the user info of the Application Pool in IIS the website is hosted in.
Is there a way I can get the logged in user of the machine?

Is there a sample showing the usage of Security.User to retrieve the info?

Is there a way to enable Security in Radzen if we are not using Radzen IDE? SecurityService is not being recognized as a class when I try to use it.

See the thread I've posted in my first reply:

Default Windows Username and Date/Time Stamp

Hi Chris, On the other hand this is just the Windows user running the app. If you need full Windows Authentication you can enable it in IIS: and tell the Radzen app to use it in Startup.cs public partial class Startup { partial void OnConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services) { services.AddAuthentication(Microsoft.AspNetCore.Server.IISIntegration.IISDefaults.AuthenticationScheme); } } In this case the user can be accessed like this: public partial class …

@Default Windows Username and Date/Time Stamp

services.AddAuthentication(Microsoft.AspNetCore.Server.IISIntegration.IISDefaults.AuthenticationScheme);

Is this solution for Blazor Web Assembly? I cannot install the nuget AspNetCore.Authentication.Negotiate in the client project to use the AddAuthentication, it gives the error
" There was no runtime pack for Microsoft.AspNetCore.App available for the specified RuntimeIdentifier 'browser-wasm'"

If you are not using the Radzen IDE you should look online how to enable Windows security for a Blazor WASM application.

This is beyond the scope of this forum.

Thanks, I was able to get this working from the server side and once published to IIS.
