Having Trouble Implementing Okta Authentication with WebForms The login functionality is working, but the redirect part is not functioning correctly
I have attempted to use void and return a JSON object/string, but it does not seem to work
If I remove the contentType and dataType from the ajax method, the success event works. However, I am unable to debug the method properly and it does not perform as expected
My goal is to redirect to SignedIn.aspx at the end of the webmethod. I tried using the following code, but was unsuccessful. This is why I am attempting to handle it client-side through the ajax success method
HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect("SignedIn.aspx");
Ajax:
function FormSubmit() {
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "Example.aspx/Login",
data: "{hiddenSessionTokenField:'" + $('#hiddenSessionTokenField').val() + "'}",
dataType: "json",
async:false,
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
success: function (response) {
alert("Method Called Successfully" + response);
window.location.href = "http://localhost:8080/SignedIn.aspx";
},
error: function (response) {
alert("error " + response);
}
});
}
WebMethod
[WebMethod(EnableSession = true)]
[ScriptMethod(ResponseFormat = ResponseFormat.Json)]
public static void Login(string hiddenSessionTokenField)
{
//var result = new { url = "http://localhost:8080/SignedIn.aspx" };
if (!HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated)
{
var properties = new AuthenticationProperties();
properties.Dictionary.Add("sessionToken", hiddenSessionTokenField);
properties.RedirectUri = "~/SignedIn.aspx";
//Okta Authentication
HttpContext.Current.GetOwinContext().Authentication.Challenge(properties,
OpenIdConnectAuthenticationDefaults.AuthenticationType);
//System.Web.Script.Serialization.JavaScriptSerializer s = new System.Web.Script.Serialization.JavaScriptSerializer();
//return s.Serialize(result));
}
//return s.Serialize(result));
}
