Password reset token provider in ASP.NET core - IUserTokenProvider not found

Question

Hello,

I googled thoroughly but there is hundred examples from ASP.NET but nothing about ASP.NET Core.

In order to getting password reset work I need to registe

I'm not sure if it's workaround or normal approach, but the IUserTwoFactorTokenProvider interface seems to be a right way. IUserTokenProvider appears to no longer exists.

Figured out that I have to register the provider manually in the identity:

services.AddIdentity(options =>
            {
                ...
                options.Tokens.ProviderMap.Add("Default", new TokenProviderDescriptor(typeof(IUserTwoFactorTokenProvider)));
            })

And the optional configuration in ConfigureServices:

services.Configure(o =>
        {
            o.Name = "Default";
            o.TokenLifespan = TimeSpan.FromHours(1);
        });

And the password reset / email validation tokens are working now.

PS: Opened an issue for clarification
