Getting Steam User Data about aspnet.security.openid.providers

[benkonz]

So I figured out that problems were happening when I was using steam authentication with identity. Once I removed the identity calls from startup.cs, everything worked. Is there a way to use steam authentication along with Identity?

The Steam provider works exactly like any other authentication middleware, so I'd recommend having a look at the Identity samples/templates that use external authentication to see how you're supposed to integrate things.

So I made a new project and added some of the started code in the sample so that Steam shows up as another service to log in, however I seem to be having the same problem as issue as #26, where my claims show that the user is associated with steam, but I cannot get any information other than http://schemas.microsoft.com/ws/2008/06/identity/claims/authenticationmethod: Steam. Since I am using ASP .net core framework, it doesn't seem like I have the GetExternalLoginInfoAsync() method. What would be an alternative for this method?

GetExternalLoginInfoAsync() is defined here: https://github.com/aspnet/Identity/blob/1.0.0/src/Microsoft.AspNetCore.Identity/SignInManager.cs#L438.
