    see https://github.com/aspnetzero/aspnet-zero-core/issues/1265

    I think the code can meet your needs already, of course you need to integrate it.

    You can invite anyone to become a member of the ASP.NET Zero organization using their GitHub username. And they can access the ASP.NET Zero private GitHub repositories. . Right after you add a GitHub user, the user will receive an invitation email. If there is problem receiving the invitation email, alternatively user can visit github.com/orgs/aspnetzero page and accept the invitation.

    Could you add an public empty constructor to pdfFileDto ?
