Custom Token Request Validation and IssuanceΒΆ

You can run custom code as part of the token issuance pipeline at the token endpoint. This allows e.g. for

  • adding additional validation logic
  • changing certain parameters (e.g. token lifetime) dynamically

For this purpose, implement (and register) the ICustomTokenRequestValidator interface:

/// <summary>
/// Allows inserting custom validation logic into token requests
/// </summary>
public interface ICustomTokenRequestValidator
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Custom validation logic for a token request.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="context">The context.</param>
    /// <returns>
    /// The validation result
    /// </returns>
    Task ValidateAsync(CustomTokenRequestValidationContext context);
}

The context object gives you access to:

  • adding custom response parameters
  • return an error and error description
  • modifying the request parameters, e.g. access token lifetime and type, client claims, and the confirmation method

You can register your implementation of the validator using the AddCustomTokenRequestValidator extension method on the configuration builder.
