On .NET Core 3.1 you need to manually reference the [System.IdentityModel.Tokens.Jwt](https://www.nuget.org/packages/System.IdentityModel.Tokens.Jwt/5.6.0) Nuget package version 5.6 to be able to check the type header.

## Adding audience validation
Simply making sure that the token is coming from a trusted issuer is not good enough for most cases.
In more complex systems, you will have multiple resources and multiple clients. Not every client might be authorized to access every resource.

*AddAspNetIdentity* requires as a generic parameter the class that models your user for ASP.NET Identity (and the same one passed to *AddIdentity* to configure ASP.NET Identity).
This configures IdentityServer to use the ASP.NET Identity implementations of [IUserClaimsPrincipalFactory](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/microsoft.aspnetcore.identity.iuserclaimsprincipalfactory-1) to convert the user data into claims, *IResourceOwnerPasswordValidator* to support the [password grant type]({{<ref "/tokens/password_grant">}}), and *IProfileService* which uses the *IUserClaimsPrincipalFactory* to add [claims]({{<ref "/fundamentals/claims">}}) to tokens.

Add the BFF middleware to the pipeline by calling *UseBFF*. Note that the middleware must be placed before the authorization middleware, but after routing.

```csharp
public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app)
{
// rest omitted
app.UseAuthentication();
app.UseRouting();

app.UseBff();

app.UseEndpoints(endpoints => { /* ... */ }
}

#### Decorate Endpoints
Endpoints that require the pre and post processing described above must be decorated with a call to *AsBffApiEndpoint()*.

For minimal API endpoints, you can apply BFF pre- and post-processing when they are mapped.
```csharp
endpoints.MapPost("/foo", context => { ... })
app.MapPost("/foo", context => { ... })
.RequireAuthorization() // no anonymous access
.AsBffApiEndpoint(); // BFF pre/post processing
```


For MVC controllers, you can similarly apply BFF pre- and post-processing to controller actions when they are mapped.
```csharp
endpoints.MapControllers()
app.MapControllers()
.RequireAuthorization() // no anonymous access
.AsBffApiEndpoint(); // BFF pre/post processing

Use the *MapRemoteBffApiEndpoint* extension method to describe how to map requests coming into the BFF out to remote APIs and the *RequireAccessToken* method to specify token requirements. *MapRemoteBffApiEndpoint* takes two parameters: the base path of requests that will be mapped externally, and the address to the external API where the requests will be mapped. *MapRemoteBffApiEndpoint* maps a path and all sub-paths below it. The intent is to allow easy mapping of groups of URLs. For example, you can set up mappings for the /users, /users/{userId}, /users/{userId}/books, and /users/{userId}/books/{bookId} endpoints like this:

```cs
app.UseEndpoints(endpoints =>
{
endpoints.MapRemoteBffApiEndpoint(
"/api/users", "https://remoteHost/users")
.RequireAccessToken(TokenType.User);
});
app.MapRemoteBffApiEndpoint("/api/users", "https://remoteHost/users")
