Hello,
We're using EVOPdf library to print html to pdf.
As EvoPDF can't run in Azure in the app itself, it has to run in a separated worker. The problem is that I've to print a page inside the aspnetzero app where the user has to be authenticated.
Could I somehow take the current access token and set it to the request made by the pdf engine.? If not, I'm thinking of creating a single use token to pass to the url, so the authentication is skipped, but seems a bit tricky.
On the other hand, can I have some public pages inside the authenticated app?
Any idea? Thanks

Hi,
Yes, you can send the token as shown in the examples below;
For JQuery projects: https://docs.aspnetzero.com/en/aspnet-core-mvc/latest/Infrastructure-Core-Mvc-Token-Based-Authentication For Angular projects: https://docs.aspnetzero.com/en/aspnet-core-angular/latest/Features-Angular-Token-Based-Authentication
On the other hand, can I have some public pages inside the authenticated app?
Yes, you can just use
AllowAnonymousattribute on your Controller (or one of its Actions) orAbpAllowAnonymouson your AppService (or one of its methods). -

Thanks, not sure if this solves my problem.
I don't need to access a controller anonymously, but be able to access a view of the application without beign authenticated. I mean, the pdf printer engine need as a parameter the url of the page to be printed, and because this is a background process I cannot authenticate it.

Hi @ignasiclos,
To access a view, you must access an action of a Controller. I don't know EVOPdf but does it provide a way for authentication ?

Hi @ismcagdas,
EvoPdf offers some ways of authentication, but not with token. I've made it by creating creating routes without guard in the angular application, an protecting them with a single use token, included in the url to print by the pdf engine.
Thanks
