WindowsIdentity IntPtr, String. WindowsIdentity String. WindowsIdentity String, String. WindowsIdentity WindowsIdentity. Inherited from ClaimsIdentity. Gets or sets the identity of the calling party that was granted delegation rights. Gets or sets the token that was used to create this claims identity.

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. Inherited from Object. Retrieves all of the claims that are matched by the specified predicate. FindAll String. Returns a WindowsIdentity object that represents the current Windows user, using the specified desired token access level.

Returns a WindowsIdentity object that represents the Windows identity for either the thread or the process, depending on the value of the ifImpersonating parameter. The desiredAccess parameter specifies an access mask that identifies the requested types of access to the access token.

These requested access types are compared with the token's discretionary access control list DACL to determine which types of access are granted or denied.

If ifImpersonating is true and the thread is not impersonating, the returned WindowsIdentity object has no value.

If ifImpersonating is false and the thread is impersonating, the WindowsIdentity for the thread is returned. If ifImpersonating is false and the thread is not impersonating, the WindowsIdentity for the process is returned. The following code shows the use of the GetCurrent method to return a WindowsIdentity object that represents the current Windows user.

This code example is part of a larger example provided for the WindowsIdentity class. Pranav Singh Peng Peng 94 1 1 silver badge 8 8 bronze badges. Add a comment. Active Oldest Votes.
