Authentication and Authorization in Elsa V3

[glime-ai]

To integrate Windows Authentication into your Elsa Blazor application and disable the default identity features, you will need to configure your application to use Windows Authentication and remove or modify the default identity configuration.

Here's a general approach to disable the default identity and use Windows Authentication:

1. Remove or comment out the UseIdentity and UseDefaultAuthentication configuration in your Program.cs or Startup.cs file, which sets up the default identity features and authentication.

2. Configure Windows Authentication in your application. This typically involves setting up the authentication scheme to use Windows Authentication and ensuring your application runs in an environment where Windows Authentication is supported (like IIS).

3. You may also need to configure authorization policies based on Windows user roles or groups if you want to restrict access to certain parts of the application.

Here's an example of how you might modify your Program.cs or Startup.cs to use Windows Authentication:

// Remove or comment out the following lines:
// elsa.UseIdentity(identity => { ... });
// elsa.UseDefaultAuthentication(auth => auth.UseAdminApiKey());

// Add Windows Authentication services.
builder.Services.AddAuthentication(IISDefaults.AuthenticationScheme);

// Add authorization if needed.
builder.Services.AddAuthorization(options =>
{
    // Define your authorization policies here.
});

Please note that the exact steps may vary depending on your application's setup and the version of ASP.NET Core you are using. Additionally, you should ensure that your hosting environment is properly configured to support Windows Authentication.

If I disable the default identity configuration, it still asks me to login using the default credential. and if I pass the credential and navigate to the workflow definition, it is not working.
