Installed IdentityModel nuget package in .Net 7.5 MVC application. But unable to find the DiscoveryClient.

Yes, you are correct. There are lot of changes in the IdentityModel NuGet package.

Below code will help you:

HttpClient httpClient = new HttpClient();

//Below code will give you discovery document response previously we were creating using DiscoveryClient()

// They have created `.GetDiscoveryDocumentAsync()` extension method to get discovery document.

DiscoveryDocumentResponse discoveryDocument = await httpClient.GetDiscoveryDocumentAsync();


// To create a token you can use one of the following methods, which totally depends upon which grant type you are using for token generation.

Task<TokenResponse> RequestAuthorizationCodeTokenAsync(AuthorizationCodeTokenRequest)
Task<TokenResponse> RequestClientCredentialsTokenAsync(ClientCredentialsTokenRequest)
Task<TokenResponse> RequestDeviceTokenAsync(DeviceTokenRequest)
Task<TokenResponse> RequestPasswordTokenAsync(PasswordTokenRequest)
Task<TokenResponse> RequestRefreshTokenAsync(RefreshTokenRequest)
Task<TokenResponse> RequestTokenAsync(TokenRequest)

For example if you want to create a token for password grant type then use below code:

PasswordTokenRequest passwordTokenRequest = new PasswordTokenRequest()
            {
                Address = discoveryDocument.TokenEndpoint,
                ClientId = ClientName,
                ClientSecret = ClientSecret,
                GrantType = GrantTypes.ResourceOwnerPassword,
                Scope = scope,
                UserName = userName,
                Password = password
            };

httpClient.RequestPasswordTokenAsync(passwordTokenRequest);

I hope this will help you!

If you used some sample code and the other answers aren't working, because HttpClient doesn't have GetDiscoveryDocumentAsync

    var client = new HttpClient();

    var disco = await client.GetDiscoveryDocumentAsync("https://localhost:5001");

Update your IdentityModel package, in Visual Studio:

Right click Dependencies -> Manage Nuget Packages -> Updates (select "All" in top right corner)
