Recommended way to get access to UserManager from asp.net core side

[ahazelwood]

I have managed to integrate a fairly complex asp.net Webforms application using systemweb-adapters. However, one of the pieces that I would like to be able to migrate is the ability to add/manage users.

Normally I would use:

services.AddIdentity<MyMembershipUser, IdentityRole<string>>
    .AddEntityFrameworkStores<MyDbContext>();

However once I do this, the authorization no longer works correctly because AddIdentity appears to squash the underlying cookies authentication from the Webforms app.

Any suggestions on how to add this integration point in so that DI will work correctly on the core side?

Thanks.
