ASP NET Web API logout

[@belmiris1371]

I had a weird issue where Chrome kept using a cache of the Login.html page that wrote to the sessionStorage but used the new Data.html that read from the localStorage. Thank goodness for the 'view source' option. A CTRL + F5 solved the issue after I went down several rabbit holes. Thank you for these great videos!

Hello Venkat, great video as always. I was wondering, why not using cookies to store the token? Does localstorage have any advantage over cookies?

[@shivasanika3762]

Hi sir, Would like to clarify some doubts below. 1) How if I want to delete token from the server? 2) or how to modify the validity of token by clicking some button on UI? 3) Where is the actual point (code) of the verification is happening at server side? How the server us validating the token is correct or not and validated or not?

[@hitenmaisuriya8212]

yes i want to know this also

[@yasirirfan5262]

Did you get your answer? I want the answer of your question.

[@belmiris1371]

@@yasirirfan5262 1) I don't think the token is stored on the server. The server just decrypts it and gets the information stored there (user, etc...). 2) The client should never validate the token. The token is handled by the server. 3) He shows in an earlier video that the ApplicationOAuthProvider.cs class handles looking up the user. You can see it in the code.

What if someone get access-token from over session storage and he can expose our data on fiddler so how can we manually expire over token or forcefully expire ?

Hello Venkat Sir, Are you going to upload recover password in Web Api. Thanks for all your help with .Net videos.

[@amsuprith]

Hi Venkat thanks for great tutorials Is user name and passwords are passed as the plain text to server in the demo?. If that is the case is it not easy for a hacker to get hold of them and use for generating the token? . Please advise.

[@caidengrant1101]

i guess Im randomly asking but does anyone know a way to get back into an instagram account..? I stupidly lost my login password. I appreciate any help you can offer me.

[@vinayakachikodi7082]

Is there way to check accessToken is valid or not. Because, if we are checking whether accessToken is not null, then user can add accessToken with any string value key in local or session storage from inspect mode.

Excellent!

I really want to know what's the difference between the "bearer" and "basic" authentication, is the "bearer" more secure?? And I hope you could made some more videos about OData on Web API to enrich this video series. Big Thank!!

[@ShivamAggarwal22]

With bearer authentication, you don't send a username/password combination with every request. If someone is snooping, they will get only the authentication token which will expire after some time. They can not get permanent access to your account. They can't reset your password either. That's because your previous password is required to set a new Password. Or at least you need something else, other than the temporary authentication token.

The only code preventing the user from logout is javascript, is it possible to see the page if you disable javascript?
