I am a fearly newbie to asp.net identity framework. Have experience with simple membership provider etc.
I want to get a user authenticated by using a special url and a token with it. like : http://www.website.com/urlAuth/
A user get's an email and i want to user to login/authenticate with this url
the token is active for a certain time and has a user account ands some actions attached to it.
I cannot lay my finger on how to get a user authenticated without password. I investigated a impersination scenario (i have a special impersination with authentication info in web.config) but that's not a solid solution i think.
Could some on help me to direct me to a solid solution
Thank you!
