How to get user claims after signin through SignInManager in ASP .NET CORE Identity?

I have an ASP .NET Core 2.0 project in which I am using Microsoft's Identity framework for authentication/authorization. I have the following method that validates the user against username and password and returns claims count. The user I am trying to login is found in database but it's claims are being returned 0 here - in the database the claims do exist against the user (see the imageenter image description here). 

    [HttpPost("login")]
    public async Task<object> Login([FromBody] LoginDto model)
    {
        var result = await _signInManager.PasswordSignInAsync(model.Email, model.Password, false, false);

        if (result.Succeeded)
        {
            var appUser = _signInManager.UserManager.Users.SingleOrDefault(r => r.Email == model.Email);
            var userClaims = await _signInManager.UserManager.GetClaimsAsync(appUser); // this is returning 0 claims

            return Ok(HttpContext.User.Claims.Count());
        }

       throw new ApplicationException("INVALID_LOGIN_ATTEMPT");
    }

The answers on the possible duplicate question did not solve my problem.

For UserManager.GetClaimsAsync, it will query claims from AspNetUserClaims instead of AspNetUserRoles. You could check this by GetClaimsAsync

return await UserClaims.Where(uc => uc.UserId.Equals(user.Id)).Select(c => c.ToClaim()).ToListAsync(cancellationToken);

In general, we could try HttpContext.User.Claims to retrive the claims for the user, but it will work for sub-request instead of current login request. If you move this HttpContext.User.Claims to Home Index action, it will return the expected result.

For getting claims in Login, I suggest you try 

                var claimsPrincipal = await _signInManager.CreateUserPrincipalAsync(appUser);
                var claims = claimsPrincipal.Claims.ToList();
