Accessing
Session Using ASP.NET Web API 2 in MVC 5 -
Well, as you know, REST API by design is
stateless. By adding session variables you are making it stateful and defeating
any purpose of having a RESTful API.
In
WebApi 2 you can add this to Global.asax –
//Global.asax
protected
void Application_PostAuthorizeRequest()
{
System.Web.HttpContext.Current.SetSessionStateBehavior(System.Web.SessionState.SessionStateBehavior.Required);
}
Then
you could access the session through –
namespace
demo.Api
{
[EnableCors(origins:
"http://localhost:53865,https://app.code-sample.com",
headers: "*",
methods: "*")]
public class
BaseAPIController
: ApiController
{
/// <summary>
///
BaseAPIController constructor will check that identity exists or not.
/// </summary>
public
BaseAPIController()
{
//GET Current
Session.
var
session = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Session;
if
(!(HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated))
{
SetHeader();
}
}
/// <summary>
/// Set header
status code to 401
/// </summary>
public
void SetHeader()
{
HttpResponse
resp = HttpContext.Current.Response;
resp.StatusCode
= 401;
resp.End();
}
}
}
