Get list of users with assigned roles in asp.net identity 2.0

Question

I have a drop down list box which lists roles. I want to get the list of users having that role. I mean list of users that are in \"Administrator\" role or \"CanEdit\" role.

Answer 1

If you want to avoid using the context directly you can use the RoleManager with the following snippet

roleManager.FindByName("Administrator").Users

or

roleManager.FindByName("CanEdit").Users
