Add Query String token for web api authentication

Create this class to retrieve access token from query string and add to ApplicationOAuthProvider.cs

public class QueryStringOAuthBearerProvider : OAuthBearerAuthenticationProvider
{
    public override Task RequestToken(OAuthRequestTokenContext context)
    {
        var value = context.Request.Query.Get("access_token");

        if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(value))
        {
            context.Token = value;
        }

        return Task.FromResult<object>(null);
    }
}

Edit this code in Startup.Auth.cs

OAuthOptions = new OAuthAuthorizationServerOptions
{
    TokenEndpointPath = new PathString("/Token"),
    Provider = new ApplicationOAuthProvider(PublicClientId),
    AuthorizeEndpointPath = new PathString("/api/Account/ExternalLogin"),
    AccessTokenExpireTimeSpan = TimeSpan.FromDays(14),
    // In production mode set AllowInsecureHttp = false
    AllowInsecureHttp = true                
};

// Enable the application to use bearer tokens to authenticate users

//app.UseOAuthBearerTokens(OAuthOptions);   // Commented this line.

app.UseOAuthAuthorizationServer(OAuthOptions); // Added this line

// Enable the application to retrieve tokens from query string to authenticate users
app.UseOAuthBearerAuthentication(new OAuthBearerAuthenticationOptions()
{
    Provider = new QueryStringOAuthBearerProvider()
});

Now build and we are done. Use both the method for login.
