Processing an OpenID Discovery Metadata Request

[Route(".well-known/openid-configuration")]
[ResponseCache(Duration = 600, Location = ResponseCacheLocation.Any)]
public async Task GetMetadataAsync()
{
    // Return the OpenID provider's metadata.
    return await _openIDProvider.GetMetadataAsync();
}

Processing an OpenID Key Request

[Route("openid/keys")]
[ResponseCache(Duration = 600, Location = ResponseCacheLocation.Any)]
public async Task GetKeysAsync()
{
    // Return the OpenID provider's keys.
    return await _openIDProvider.GetKeysAsync();
}

Processing an OpenID Connect Authentication Request

[Route("openid/authorize")]
public async Task AuthorizeAsync()
{
    // Receive and process the OpenID Connect authentication request.
    var authenticationRequest = await _openIDProvider.ReceiveAuthnRequestAsync();
}

Sending an OpenID Connect Authentication Response

[Route("openid/AuthenticationCompletion")]
public async Task AuthenticationCompletionAsync()
{
    // Create and send the OpenID Connect authentication response.
    return await _openIDProvider.SendAuthnResponseAsync(name, claims, accessToken);
}
