Looking for sample application

richard.allwood · 13 Apr 2021, 18:32

Hello all,
Has anyone used FusionAuth as an authentication point for both an Angular app for frontend and a Web Api backend for data (in my case .Net Core WebApi)? For example, visit frontend, if unauthenticated be taken to FusionAuth, login and redirected to frontend, and any api/http calls made to WebApi this also confirms auth before returning data.

I'm looking for an alternative to Auth0/Okta (which I have working in this fashion) and FusionAuth does look like a contender for that but want to check if the community for it is using it this way at all or not before I start installing and attempting to use it. And if possible, if anyone has an example as I cannot find one to fit my purpose (unless missed it), as I am sadly pressed for time.

@richard-allwood,

Welcome to the FusionAuth Community!

FusionAuth acts as an IdP just as Auth0/Okta (albeit with implementation and feature set differentiators), and therefore it will allow you to architect solutions for Authorization and Authentication.

We have a few sample applications which should guide you on your journey.

Please find our client libraries and documentation if you need additional information.

If you are looking for something more specific, or run into trouble, please let us know.

Thanks,
Josh

Thank you Josh,

I had already seen those was just hoping to find something closer to my scenario if it existed, or if possible even have an example created should that be a service FusionAuth can offer.

I will carve out some time to try and create the example myself then thanks.

Thanks, @richard-allwood!

Apologies we don't have a ready-made solution for you. A lot of our development and tutorials are driven by community interest, so we can keep it on the radar for future implementation. Or, if you get FusionAuth working "in the wild" in a different framework, we would certainly consider any example code to incorporate into our documentation for the benefit of others.

In the meantime, if there is some other documentation I find addressing your use case, I will certainly post it back here.

Good luck!

Thanks,
Josh
