Hello, I'm stuck in Checking role of users in Controller action(HomeController, Index action), below described my use case, I have tried as per documentation role management and user management on ASP.NET Boilerplate site but nothing works for me

I have to navigate users to their respective layout pages on the basis of their roles, here is my code as of now but I have to replace it with users role

// Home Comtroller public ActionResult Index() {

if (HttpContext.User.Identity.Name.Equals("admin")) {

            return View("~/App/Main/views/admin/adminlayout.cshtml");
        }
        else if (HttpContext.User.Identity.Name.Equals("student"))
        {
           return View("~/App/Main/views/student/studentlayout.cshtml");
            
        }

else{ //... }

}

urgent help would be appreciated, also I would like know how could we use external webservice call inside AngularJS or Boilerplate site.

Thanks Aifaz

    Below code workes for me and done like this way, Can you Please check if it is fine to deploy, Pls Suggest

    [UnitOfWork] public ActionResult Index() { var adminRoleForDefaultTenant = new UserRole(); var role = new Role(); var UserId = _userManager.AbpSession.UserId; using (var unitOfWork = _unitOfWorkManager.Begin()) {

                adminRoleForDefaultTenant = _context.DbContext.UserRoles.FirstOrDefault(r => r.UserId == UserId);
            var roleID = adminRoleForDefaultTenant.RoleId;
            role = _context.DbContext.Roles.FirstOrDefault(r => r.Id == roleID);
           
            unitOfWork.Complete();
        }
        ////Layout of the angular application.
         if(role.Name.Equals("Admin"))
         {
             return View("~/App/Main/views/admin/adminlayout.cshtml");
         }

    Your code may work but not a good code. Also, it has a bug. It can be one-level fixed as shown below:

    [UnitOfWork]
public virtual ActionResult Index()
{
    var adminRoleForDefaultTenant = _context.DbContext.UserRoles.FirstOrDefault(r => r.UserId == AbpSession.UserId);
    var roleID = adminRoleForDefaultTenant.RoleId;
    var role = _context.DbContext.Roles.FirstOrDefault(r => r.Id == roleID);

    ////Layout of the angular application.
    if(role.Name.Equals("Admin"))
    {
    return View("~/App/Main/views/admin/adminlayout.cshtml");
    }
    else if (role.Name.Equals("Student"))
    {
    return View("~/App/Main/views/student/studentlayout.cshtml");
    }
    else{//..}
}

    You missed to add virtual to method definition. So, your UOW did not work and you manually Begin a UOW. Also, I cleared your code a bit by removing unnecessary assignments.

    But... this is still not a good code. Why don't you just use user manager to check it?

    public ActionResult Index()
{
    if (_userManager.IsInRole(AbpSession.GetUserId(), "Admin"))
    {
        return View("~/App/Main/views/admin/adminlayout.cshtml");
    }
    else if (_userManager.IsInRole(AbpSession.GetUserId(), "Student"))
    {
        return View("~/App/Main/views/student/studentlayout.cshtml");
    }
    else
    {
        //..
    }
}
