User-secrets

Dfe.PrepareTransfers.Web

The frontend repo requires the following user secrets to be able to connect to TRAMS:

  • TRAMS_API_KEY - The API key for the TRAMS API
  • TRAMS_API_BASE - The base URL for the TRAMS API (with trailing slash)

The following user secret is required for the landing page to be able to navigate to the Conversions service:

  • ServiceLink:TransfersUrl - The URL for the Conversions service.

Authentication and Authorisation

Authentication is provided by Azure AD. The settings are stored in the application configuration and built on startup. Users can login using their usual DfE account. Allowed roles are transfers.create. Full setup details can be found here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/develop/web-app-quickstart?pivots=devlang-aspnet-core

To add an Azure AD application within Azure

  1. Navigate to the appropriate Azure AD within https://portal.azure.com
  2. Select App registration and provide a name
  3. Add Redirect URI(s), this will end with /signin-oidc
  4. Select ID tokens
  5. Create the required app roles
  6. Assign the necessary AD groups or users to the correct app roles within enterprise applications

To setup receiving a users list of groups within claims

  1. Navigate to Token configuration
  2. Select "add groups claim"
  3. Select "security groups"
  4. Group ids will be available in the HttpContext.User.Claims

Model validation

This project uses fluent validators to validate the view model as opposed to MVC Dfe.PrepareTransfers.Data Annotation. Due to this, using attribute tags such as [Required] will have no effect.

You will need to ensure you have ViewModel to hold the properties you will need to validate and to create a custom validator with an AbstractValidator as it's base class.

Once this is in place then you can use ModelState.IsValid() as usual in the controllers.
