Allow multiple roles to access controller action

Question

Right now I decorate a method like this to allow \"members\" to access my controller action

[Authorize(Roles=\"members\")]

How do I

Answer 1

Another clear solution, you can use constants to keep convention and add multiple [Authorize] attributes. Check this out:

public static class RolesConvention
{
    public const string Administrator = "Administrator";
    public const string Guest = "Guest";
}

Then in the controller:

[Authorize(Roles = RolesConvention.Administrator )]
[Authorize(Roles = RolesConvention.Guest)]
[Produces("application/json")]
[Route("api/[controller]")]
public class MyController : Controller

Answer 2

If you want use custom roles, you can do this:

CustomRoles class:

public static class CustomRoles
{
    public const string Administrator = "Administrador";
    public const string User = "Usuario";
}

Usage

[Authorize(Roles = CustomRoles.Administrator +","+ CustomRoles.User)]

If you have few roles, maybe you can combine them (for clarity) like this:

public static class CustomRoles
{
     public const string Administrator = "Administrador";
     public const string User = "Usuario";
     public const string AdministratorOrUser = Administrator + "," + User;  
}

Usage

[Authorize(Roles = CustomRoles.AdministratorOrUser)]

Answer 3

If you find yourself applying those 2 roles often you can wrap them in their own Authorize. This is really an extension of the accepted answer.

using System.Web.Mvc;

public class AuthorizeAdminOrMember : AuthorizeAttribute
{
    public AuthorizeAdminOrMember()
    {
        Roles = "members, admin";
    }
}

And then apply your new authorize to the Action. I think this looks cleaner and reads easily.

public class MyController : Controller
{
    [AuthorizeAdminOrMember]
    public ActionResult MyAction()
    {
        return null;
    }
}

Answer 4

Another option is to use a single authorize filter as you posted but remove the inner quotations.

[Authorize(Roles="members,admin")]

Answer 5

Intent promptInstall = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
promptInstall.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
promptInstall.setDataAndType(Uri.parse("http://10.0.2.2:8081/MyAPPStore/apk/Teflouki.apk"), "application/vnd.android.package-archive" );

startActivity(promptInstall);

Answer 6

Using AspNetCore 2.x, you have to go a little different way:

[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Method | AttributeTargets.Class, Inherited = true, AllowMultiple = true)]
public class AuthorizeRoleAttribute : AuthorizeAttribute
{
    public AuthorizeRoleAttribute(params YourEnum[] roles)
    {
        Policy = string.Join(",", roles.Select(r => r.GetDescription()));
    }
}

just use it like this:

[Authorize(YourEnum.Role1, YourEnum.Role2)]
