I am trying to implement authenticating and identification on a cross-platform mobile application consuming a WebApi service. My plan is to export the authentication to a federated cloud service, such as the new Azure Mobile Service. The Client Mobile application will consume the Mobile Service authentication flow, get a token, and will than have it sent inside the requests' headers to the WebApi, which in turn will validate it and extract the UserId from it. Assuming I already configured the WebApi the validate JWT tokens using DelegatingHandler interceptor, is it possible to validate tokens

I have followed Adrian Halls book to create a cross platform app with a Mobile Service API backend. I have successfully got unsecured access to the backend working from Android, iOS and Desktop (WPF) clients. I am moving on to adding security to the API using the Authorise attribute. I would like to add social authentication using MicrosoftAccount (formerly passport/Live ID). Since Adrian wrote his book the Microsoft.Azure.Mobile.Client and the authentication and authorisation landscape seem to have moved on. The samples given in the book no longer build and Microsoft's social authentication

I am using Azure Mobile Service to add authentication to my Windows Store app. Following this article from Mobile Services documentation I am able to get the UserId as well as MobileServiceAuthenticationToken (both for Google as well as Microsoft Account) My question is how do I get user info like name, email Id etc. using MobileServiceAuthenticationToken in a .NET backend mobile service. I have gone through various articles explaining how this is done in Javascript Backend mobile service but couldn't find anything properly implemented in C# + .NET backend mobile service. Any pointers

I'm trying to send data from my Android client as a POST request to my Web API Backend but it returns a 404 response code. Here's my code: Backend : [HttpPost] [Route("api/postcomment")] public IHttpActionResult PostComment(string comment, string email, string actid) { string status = CC.PostNewComment(comment, email, actid); return Ok(status); } Android Code: HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient(); HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost("http://MYWEBADDRESS.azure-mobile.net/api/postcomment"); String mobileServiceAppId = "AZURE_SERVICE_APP_ID"; try { List<NameValuePair> nameValuePairs = new

I am working on a project using Microsoft Azure services . In that while deleting a row I am getting this error: Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', reason: 'Invalid update: invalid number of rows in section 0. The number of rows contained in an existing section after the update (2) must be equal to the number of rows contained in that section before the update (2), plus or minus the number of rows inserted or deleted from that section (0 inserted, 1 deleted) and plus or minus the number of rows moved into or out of that section (0 moved in, 0 moved

I am new to Azure App Service. I've created a view in Azure database to get data across several tables. Now I want to use the data from this view in my Cordova App using the Azure Mobile Service (MobileService.GetTable...). I found several articles in the web that describe how to do that in Classic Azure Portal. But I need a solution for the NEW Azure App Service with Node.js Backend. What is the syntax to return data from a view as an Azure table? var table = module.exports = require('azure-mobile-apps').table(); table.read(function (context) { // *** Need code to return data from sql view **
