@dan Thank you for the link. I actually did go through the API documentation. But I couldn't find API call for the following highlighted queries:
a Retrieving List of all users for a specific tenant
b Retrieving List of all users within a specific application for a particular tenant

• Retrieving List of all users for a specific tenant
  
  In here, "Retrieve a user" only retrieves a single user.
  "Search for Users", it also only retrieves the users whose Ids are provided in the query.
  its the same for following, I can't find any API calls in API documentation of Users, Registration, Login or Tenants/Application.
  • Retrieving List of all users within a specific application for a particular tenant

I have created a generic group as well, and then try to add users into that. When I retrieve the group i don't get any information regarding they are part of which groups. So It can not be used as well.

Q1 - Is it not possible retrieve these datas?
Q2 - Do we have to separately keep a database to maintain the list our self to retrieve these data on go.
(This data is required by us to create a management portal for both super admin who manages all the tenants/applications related information and for individual tenant admins who manages their own users and their related information. )

Thank you

Hello everyone,

Currently I am using Asp.net 4.5.2 framework.
I have two applications

• Web Application (Client -APP)(Client)
• WebAPI application(server-APP) (Resource Server)

While logging in first request come to client app then from there user name and password are sent to server app with password grant request, where using OAuth, credentials are verified and Identity(claims) are added and token is generated. This token is sent back to client app and identity is retrieved and everything is stored in cookies. For every subsequent request this token\cookies is used by the client app to access resources from server. Authentication and authorization both are done via OAuth server. Authorization Server which is the main engine of OAuth exist inside Server App.

For now I can't use the Client library of fusionAuth because of the depreciation issue.
Can anyone here please highlight how can I integrate FusionAuth token in the existing process?
After generating token onetime, how can I refresh it or verify it every time a client request for another resource?
(I have read the "OpenID Connect & OAuth 2.0" documentation provided by fusion auth but since i can't use the client library, and "OpenID Connect & OAuth 2.0" is only used in case of redirect link (when we are only using the login provided by fusion auth), when we have to point the application to the authorize endpoint.
In my case i am using my own login page, request comes to client app, and then routed to server app, which has oauth logic there.)

My knowledge is very limited, I am not able to come across any tutorial for integrating fusionAuth into the existing asp.net application. Which function of fusionauth will be called at what point in the authentication and authorization process?

Thank you

Hello,

thank you so much for your reply that was very helpful.
Unfortunately I have some more questions it would be super helpful if you can answer them too.

Q - I can see we can create applications and add tenants to them, which can't be edited/changed later. Is it possible to Add multiple tenants to one application? And maybe change the tenant later.

Q - Also, on the documentation, it can be seen that in order to support multi-tenant or offer services to more than one client.
In this scenario, it is suggested to maintain separate Users, Applications, and Groups for each of your clients.

1- Which means that every application would be representing one client, then why do we need tenants,, why do we even have tenants there?

2- what is the purpose of multiple application and multiple tenants?

Best regards,
Humaria

Thank you so much for your reply.
Can you please also highlight,

• Is it possible to keep different(custom) Databases for each tenant?
  (so far I couldn't find such an option in the fusionAuth dashboard.)

• From the interface point of view, is it possible to use existing registration and login workflow process implemented in my application and directly call the API to create register users?
  Instead of using the theme setting or importing the code within the theme setting on fusionAuth server?
  (In my registration workflow, I have multiple pages which step by step take input of user information necessary for registration)

• Also is it possible to define and store more custom fields during user registration and login process? Fields like privacy consent, agree to terms and conditions, etc? (other than username/email and password)
  (I don't see any option in the dashboard to add more fields in the schema.)

Best regards,
Humaira

Hello everyone,

I have some basic questions if anyone has already come across such scenarios, please share your experience or strategy regarding how you solved this problem.

• In my application solution, I have a test and production system. Is there a possibility to define a test and production environment separately(with two different databases) within the FusionAuth server to do the authentication and authorization or I have to purchase a separate solution of Fusion Auth Server for each environment?

• Fusion Auth cloud, it hosts the fusion auth server right?
  Does it also include a Database by default to store the data of users? or we can attach the custom Database to it?
  (On the price description, there is a feature "3 nightly database backups." From there, I am perceiving that it has a built-in database to store user information, is that so? )
  

• In the order summary of the Basic hosting plan of Fusion Auth Cloud, it is written that "Complete Data loss could occur if the server or disk crashes. This is not recommended for production deployment. "
  Does that mean that there will be no recovery in that case? User Data will also be lost?
  

• Migration and export:
  1 In the future because of some unforeseen circumstances, is there any possibility available in fusion auth to transfer the existing fusion auth Database data to a new fusion auth Database?
  2 Can you please also highlight, is there any possibility to export the user/groups/tenants/application data from the FusionAuth cloud later at any point in time?

• Lastly, Can you please highlight, if I decide to take Developers plan for FusionAuth edition and Business plan for
  fusionAuth Cloud, what are the possibilities to upgrade and downgrade from these plans in the future?

Thank you so much in advance.

Hello,

Thank you for your reply. I couldn't get it working for my azure Postgres database, errors stays the same, issue with the username.
However for testing purposes, I installed the local PostgresSQL DB, When I connect the FusionAuth Server with that it worked, I was able to connect with DB and move forward to FusionAuth Dashboard.
But now I want to attach the Fusion Auth server to my remote Azure Database Again. I can't find the option to do that.
Can you please highlight the way to change the database from the fusionAuth server(dashboard)?
Can you please also answer if it is possible to keep different Databases for each tenant?

Reinstalling(Creating another local instance of Fusion Auth server on the same PC)
Do I have to reinstall FusionAuth to attach it to another Database? If yes, I actually tried reinstalling FusionAuth in a different directory and I am receiving following error:

Also, currently, FusionAuth server is installed locally and is running on Localhost, When I want to deploy this do I have to install the fusionAuth again, repeat the process of installing, attaching database, doing all the settings within the fusionAuth server like application creation, or integration of Kafka, or SMTP server configurations again?

Thank you

Hello everyone,

I am using windows fusion Auth server. Installation was done successfully. Now I am trying to connect it with the Database. I am using Azure Database for PostgreSQL for that.
When I access the Database using PostgreSQL browser client like pgAdmin 4, I am successfully able to connect with the Postgres database. There are no firewalls on the database to restrict access.

When I run the Fusion auth server, in maintenance mode, I am trying to connect with DB. I received the following error while connecting it. The error is on the username of the super credentials. (However, username and password are valid as they worked fine while connecting with pgAdmin 4 )

Anyone who faced the similar issue.

Thank you in advance

Hello everyone,

I am working on a SAAS web application, for authentication and authorization I am looking to use Fusion Auth. The target framework of my application is .net 4.5.2. I can see Fusion Auth no longer maintain the C#(.Net) Client, but I have access to this client library via the GitHub.
I have some questions before I start the development, can anyone please highlight,

• what are the disadvantages of using C#(.Net) Client library and not .Net Core?
• Is there any feature that can't be accessed or implemented via asp.net older framework?
• Will the old framework client library can get discontinued in some way in the future?
• Anyone who used C#(.Net) client library and faced difficulty in implementing any feature of FusionAuth?

Thank you
