We'll try to get this updated.
@scottaddie - this is an advanced topic. I think we should remove all the screen shots so it's easier to keep up to date.

@Rick-Anderson ,

Hi, thanks for following up.

I was referring mostly to this introduction:

This tutorial demonstrates how to enable users to sign in with a WS-Federation authentication provider like Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS) or Azure Active Directory (AAD). It uses the ASP.NET Core 2.0 sample app described in Facebook, Google, and external provider authentication.

For ASP.NET Core 2.0 apps, WS-Federation support is provided by Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authentication.WsFederation. This component is ported from Microsoft.Owin.Security.WsFederation and shares many of that component's mechanics. However, the components differ in a couple of important ways.

If I'm mistaken, then my apologies.

I have a large website using ws-federation on .net 4.6.1 right now and I'm looking into upgrade paths to asp core 3.1. I can't find any actual end-to-end usage or implementation of it in any Microsoft sample. And most other usage is using owin still.

If you happen to know of something I might be missing that would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
