I have an existing Web API project that currently has no authentication built in.
I want to add bearer-token based authentication, but I want to use a custom membership provider that I have used for other projects, although this has been with basic authentication.
There are some examples online that almost do what I need, but these have other technologies built-in that I don't want to use (e.g. Angular) or are not based on using a custom membership provider.
I could obviously do this using basic authentication, but I really don't want to.
How do I implement this?
