1. Solution Below is a concise, step-by-step guide to integrate ABP Elsa Pro into a Modular (modular-monolith) API solution and have the DbMigrator create the Elsa WorkflowDefinition/WorkflowInstance tables.

Important facts (from the official docs):

• The Elsa Pro ABP module currently does not define its own domain entities in ABP and does not fully integrate Elsa’s storage into ABP’s main DbContext. Elsa uses its own persistence (its own DbContext/migrations) and ABP’s Elsa module mainly provides auth/permissions and basic integration.
• Therefore, you won’t “generate ABP entities” for Elsa. Instead, you must include Elsa’s EF Core persistence and ensure DbMigrator applies Elsa migrations.

Prerequisites

• Valid ABP Commercial license with access to the Elsa Pro module.
• Your solution is ABP Modular template (modular monolith) with a DbMigrator project.
• EF Core provider alignment: Use the same provider for Elsa persistence as your app (e.g., SQL Server).

Step-by-step

A) Add the Elsa Pro integration modules to your services Add the following package/module dependencies to the service (module) where you will expose Elsa endpoints and permissions (typically your “Administration” or a specific module’s HttpApi.Host, Application, etc.). At minimum:

• Volo.Elsa.Abp.AspNetCore (AbpElsaAspNetCoreModule) – integrates Elsa authentication into ASP.NET Core
• Volo.Elsa.Abp.Identity (AbpElsaIdentityModule) – integrates ABP Identity with Elsa
• Volo.Elsa.Abp.Application + .Contracts (AbpElsaApplicationModule, AbpElsaApplicationContractsModule) – Elsa permissions definitions

Example (in your HttpApi.Host module):

using Volo.Abp.Modularity;
using Volo.Elsa.Abp.AspNetCore;
using Volo.Elsa.Abp.Identity;
using Volo.Elsa.Abp.Application;
using Volo.Elsa.Abp.Application.Contracts;

[DependsOn(
    typeof(AbpElsaAspNetCoreModule),
    typeof(AbpElsaIdentityModule),
    typeof(AbpElsaApplicationModule),
    typeof(AbpElsaApplicationContractsModule)
)]
public class MyServiceHttpApiHostModule : AbpModule
{
}

Do similarly in Application and Application.Contracts modules if you need to reference Elsa permissions at those layers.

B) Add Elsa EF Core persistence to your infrastructure Elsa’s runtime needs its own persistence configuration. In a typical ABP host (HttpApi.Host) or infrastructure module:

• Reference Elsa EF Core packages (Elsa.Persistence.EntityFramework.Core and the provider, e.g., Elsa.Persistence.EntityFramework.SqlServer).
• Configure Elsa to use EF Core and your connection string.

In your Host’s ConfigureServices:

using Elsa;
using Elsa.Persistence.EntityFramework.Core.Extensions;
using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore;

public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
{
    var configuration = context.Services.GetConfiguration();

    context.Services
        .AddElsa(elsa =>
        {
            elsa.UseEntityFrameworkPersistence(ef =>
                ef.UseSqlServer(configuration.GetConnectionString("Default")));
        });

    // If Elsa Studio or endpoints are needed, also add Elsa API endpoints:
    context.Services.AddElsaApiEndpoints();
}

Notes:

• ConnectionStrings: Ensure the same "Default" (or a dedicated Elsa connection if you prefer) exists in appsettings.json for Host and DbMigrator.
• If you split services per module, place this where Elsa endpoints will live.

C) Make DbMigrator apply Elsa migrations Your DbMigrator should also reference Elsa EF Core provider packages and run Elsa’s migrations. In DbMigrator project:

• Add references to Elsa.Persistence.EntityFramework.Core and provider package (e.g., Elsa.Persistence.EntityFramework.SqlServer).
• Register Elsa EF persistence exactly like in the Host, then ensure migrations are executed on startup.

In DbMigrator’s program/module:

using Elsa;
using Elsa.Persistence.EntityFramework.Core.Extensions;
using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore;

public class MyDbMigratorModule : AbpModule
{
    public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
    {
        var configuration = context.Services.GetConfiguration();

        context.Services
            .AddElsa(elsa =>
            {
                elsa.UseEntityFrameworkPersistence(ef =>
                    ef.UseSqlServer(configuration.GetConnectionString("Default")));
            });
    }

    public override async Task OnApplicationInitializationAsync(ApplicationInitializationContext context)
    {
        // Apply Elsa migrations
        var scope = context.ServiceProvider.CreateScope();
        var dbContextFactory = scope.ServiceProvider.GetRequiredService<IDbContextFactory<Elsa.Persistence.EntityFramework.Core.DbContexts.ElsaContext>>();
        await using var elsaDb = await dbContextFactory.CreateDbContextAsync();
        await elsaDb.Database.MigrateAsync();

        // Your normal ABP migrations run here as usual (if you have them packaged or via your app DbContext)
    }
}

This ensures DbMigrator applies Elsa’s own EF Core migrations at runtime, creating tables like WorkflowDefinition, WorkflowInstance, etc.

D) Configure authentication/authorization for Elsa endpoints

• Since AbpElsaAspNetCoreModule and AbpElsaIdentityModule are included, your Host uses ABP Identity/OpenIddict (or your configured auth) for securing Elsa endpoints.
• Grant necessary permissions (as provided by AbpElsaApplicationContractsModule) to your roles/users if you protect Elsa APIs.

E) Verify the setup

• Run DbMigrator. It should connect to your DB and execute Elsa EF migrations, creating tables (WorkflowDefinition, WorkflowInstance, etc.).
• Run the Host and navigate to Swagger; Elsa endpoints should be listed if you added AddElsaApiEndpoints().
• Optionally integrate Elsa Studio per your needs (per Elsa docs).

Common pitfalls

• Expectation mismatch: The ABP Elsa Pro module does not ship ABP entities/mappings for Elsa tables. You must include Elsa EF persistence and run its migrations (as shown).
• Missing provider: Ensure you referenced the matching Elsa EF provider (e.g., SqlServer) in both Host and DbMigrator.
• DbMigrator not running Elsa migrations: Ensure you explicitly create/migrate Elsa’s DbContext (shown above). Elsa migrations are separate from your app’s DbContext/migrations.

F) Compare with the official sample Check the “Elsa Workflows - Sample Workflow Demo” to see a working end-to-end configuration and adapt it to a modular solution structure.

1. Solution

• 3–5 seconds is longer than typical for ABP Angular + AuthServer/OpenIddict in a healthy local/prod setup. The delay usually comes from one or more of:
  • Angular initial bundle load and first-time OIDC discovery/token round-trip
  • Database/permission seeding or permission grant lookups on first call
  • Redis or distributed cache not running/misconfigured (cache misses → DB hits)
  • CORS/middleware misconfig or connection issues causing retries
• Apply these concrete checks and optimizations:

Backend (AuthServer/OpenIddict + HttpApi.Host)

1. Ensure distributed cache is up and reachable

• If you configured Redis for the solution template, make sure Redis is running and the connection string is correct. ABP’s permission store and app configuration endpoints benefit from cache; without it, first load hits DB repeatedly and slows login/redirect.
• Verify no connection errors in logs and that cache keys get set.

2. Pre-seed tenants/permissions outside of the login request

• Avoid heavy work (migrations, bulk permission grants, role creation, etc.) in the same request chain as login/authorize. Move tenant creation/permission seeding to a background process, domain event handler, or an administration workflow, not during the OIDC redirect flow. Long-running DB work inside the account/register/login flow directly increases the time to reach Angular.

3. Check DB performance and timeouts

• Ensure DB indexes exist for ABP tables heavily used during login/first load (e.g., AbpPermissionGrants).
• Increase DB command timeout only if you’ve addressed query slowness. If you see command timeouts for batched PermissionGrants, reduce batch size or defer them outside the request.

4. Verify CORS and endpoints

• Ensure AuthServer CORS origins include the Angular URL. Misconfigured CORS can add delays due to retries/preflight patterns. After successful auth, Angular calls:
  • /.well-known/openid-configuration and /.well-known/openid-configuration/jwks
  • /connect/token
  • /api/abp/application-configuration Make sure these are fast and not blocked by any middleware or reverse proxy.

5. Keep the OpenIddict server lean

• Disable unnecessary middleware in the auth host during login (excess logging at Trace, heavy health checks on every request, etc.).
• Ensure production build settings for the server (Release build, response compression enabled).

Angular 6) Use production build and lazy loading

• Build Angular in production mode (ng build --configuration production) and serve gz/br compressed assets on the hosting side to reduce initial load.
• Keep routes lazy-loaded and avoid heavy synchronous work in app initializers.

7. Cache the discovery document

• Angular’s OAuth client will fetch the OIDC discovery document on app start. Make sure the issuer URL is stable and fast. Hosting the AuthServer on the same LAN/region and enabling HTTP/2 helps.

8. Confirm redirectUri and silent refresh timing

• Ensure redirectUri points to a fast-loading route and that silent refresh/initial auth sequence isn’t configured to re-load app multiple times.

Checklist to validate quickly

• Start AuthServer and verify logs: no timeouts, no Redis errors, no CORS warnings.
• Hit /.well-known/openid-configuration directly in the browser: must respond quickly (<100 ms locally).
• Check /api/abp/application-configuration latency right after login: should be fast (<300–500 ms). If slow, it indicates cache/DB pressure.
• Run Angular in production mode and serve compressed bundles.

This approach aligns with common ABP conventions, but specific official documentation for this exact performance scenario is not available.

1. Solution Below is a verified, step-by-step guide to integrate ABP Elsa Pro into an existing Modular (modular monolith) API solution and generate its domain entities/migrations correctly.

Prerequisites

• ABP version compatibility: Ensure your solution version matches a supported Elsa Pro module version.
• License: Elsa Pro requires an ABP Team (or higher) license.
• EF Core provider: Same provider in your solution (e.g., SQL Server) must be used by the Elsa Pro module.
• Tools: ABP CLI installed and the DbMigrator project present in your solution.

Steps

A) Add Elsa Pro module packages to your solution

• In your main module(s) where you want Elsa features (generally the HttpApi.Host and the EFCore project of the service that will store Elsa’s data), add the Elsa Pro module NuGet packages provided in your commercial feed. Typical layers:
  • Domain.Shared: Volo.Abp.ElsaPro.Domain.Shared
  • Domain: Volo.Abp.ElsaPro.Domain
  • Application.Contracts: Volo.Abp.ElsaPro.Application.Contracts
  • Application: Volo.Abp.ElsaPro.Application
  • HttpApi: Volo.Abp.ElsaPro.HttpApi
  • HttpApi.Host (or Web): Volo.Abp.ElsaPro.HttpApi.Host (or add HttpApi + UI if you expose endpoints)
  • EntityFrameworkCore: Volo.Abp.ElsaPro.EntityFrameworkCore

B) Declare module dependencies

• In each layer module class, add DependsOn to include Elsa Pro modules alongside your existing modules. Example:

// Domain.Shared
[DependsOn(
    typeof(AbpDddDomainSharedModule),
    typeof(AbpValidationAbstractionsModule),
    typeof(AbpAuthorizationAbstractionsModule),
    typeof(AbpIdentityDomainSharedModule),
    typeof(AbpFeatureManagementDomainSharedModule),
    typeof(AbpOpenIddictDomainSharedModule),
    typeof(AbpTenantManagementDomainSharedModule),
    typeof(AbpSettingManagementDomainSharedModule),
    typeof(AbpAuditLoggingDomainSharedModule),
    typeof(AbpBackgroundJobsDomainSharedModule),
    typeof(AbpPermissionManagementDomainSharedModule),
    typeof(AbpLocalizationModule),
    typeof(AbpTimingModule),
    typeof(Volo.Abp.ElsaPro.DomainShared.ElsaProDomainSharedModule) // Example name; use the exact type from the package
)]
public class YourProjectDomainSharedModule : AbpModule
{
}

// Domain
[DependsOn(
    typeof(YourProjectDomainSharedModule),
    typeof(Volo.Abp.ElsaPro.Domain.ElsaProDomainModule)
)]
public class YourProjectDomainModule : AbpModule
{
}

// Application.Contracts
[DependsOn(
    typeof(YourProjectDomainSharedModule),
    typeof(Volo.Abp.ElsaPro.Application.Contracts.ElsaProApplicationContractsModule)
)]
public class YourProjectApplicationContractsModule : AbpModule
{
}

// Application
[DependsOn(
    typeof(YourProjectApplicationContractsModule),
    typeof(YourProjectDomainModule),
    typeof(Volo.Abp.ElsaPro.Application.ElsaProApplicationModule)
)]
public class YourProjectApplicationModule : AbpModule
{
}

// HttpApi
[DependsOn(
    typeof(YourProjectApplicationContractsModule),
    typeof(Volo.Abp.ElsaPro.HttpApi.ElsaProHttpApiModule)
)]
public class YourProjectHttpApiModule : AbpModule
{
}

// HttpApi.Host (or Web)
[DependsOn(
    typeof(YourProjectHttpApiModule),
    typeof(YourProjectApplicationModule),
    typeof(Volo.Abp.ElsaPro.HttpApi.Host.ElsaProHttpApiHostModule)
)]
public class YourProjectHttpApiHostModule : AbpModule
{
    public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
    {
        // Configure authentication/authorization for Elsa endpoints if needed
    }
}

Note: Use the exact module types from the installed packages. Names above illustrate the layering; your package exposes module classes you can discover via IDE “Go to definition”.

C) Wire up EF Core integration for Elsa Pro

• In your solution’s EFCore project that owns your primary DbContext:
  1. Add the Elsa Pro EF Core package (Volo.Abp.ElsaPro.EntityFrameworkCore).
  2. In your DbContextModelCreatingExtensions (or OnModelCreating), call the Elsa Pro configuration extension to map Elsa entities:

public static class YourProjectDbContextModelCreatingExtensions
{
    public static void ConfigureYourProject(this ModelBuilder builder)
    {
        // Your existing configurations...

        // Add Elsa Pro EF Core mappings (the actual extension method/type name comes from the package)
        builder.ConfigureElsaPro(); // Example; use the actual provided extension method
    }
}

• If Elsa Pro uses a separate DbContext by default, ensure it’s registered and the connection string is defined. Many ABP modules share the main context; if Elsa Pro uses its own context, add the connection string and register it in your EFCore module. Use the same connection string name (or module-specific one) consistently.

D) Connection strings and appsettings

• Add the connection string (or ensure default) in appsettings.json of:
  • HttpApi.Host (or the hosting service for Elsa endpoints)
  • DbMigrator
  • Any worker hosting Elsa background processing (if applicable)

Example:

"ConnectionStrings": {
  "Default": "Server=.;Database=YourDb;Trusted_Connection=True;TrustServerCertificate=True"
}

E) Run migrations for Elsa Pro domain entities

• Ensure the Elsa Pro module contributes its migrations into your EF Core migrations project. Then:
  1. Add a migration: dotnet ef migrations add "Added_ElsaPro" -p YourProject.EntityFrameworkCore -s YourProject.DbMigrator
  2. Update the database via DbMigrator:
     • Build and run the DbMigrator project. It should apply both your app and Elsa Pro migrations and seed data if any.

If Elsa Pro ships its own migrations in the package:

• Just run the DbMigrator; ABP will apply packaged migrations when properly referenced and configured.

F) Expose and test Elsa endpoints/UI

• If you’ve added Elsa HttpApi/Host modules, start HttpApi.Host and navigate to Swagger to see Elsa endpoints. Secure them as per your auth setup.
• If the module provides a UI (depending on license/module), ensure it’s included and the static files/routes are enabled in your host.

G) Common pitfalls and fixes

• Missing module dependency: If domain entities aren’t generated or mapped, check you added DependsOn(...) in each layer and registered EF mapping (ConfigureElsaPro).
• Migrations not created: Ensure the EFCore project references Elsa Pro EFCore package and the mapping is executed during ModelCreating.
• Multi-module solutions: If you added Elsa to a specific bounded context module, run that module’s DbContext migrations (or central DbMigrator that applies all).
• Modular monolith folder structure: Ensure the Elsa references are added to the correct service/module that owns the database where Elsa’s tables should live.

H) Minimal verification checklist

• Build succeeds in all layers after adding Elsa packages and module dependencies.
• Your main DbContext (or Elsa DbContext) includes Elsa entity mappings.
• DbMigrator applies migrations and creates Elsa tables.
• HttpApi.Host exposes Elsa endpoints in Swagger and responds to a basic request.

1. Solution

• Root cause: HealthChecks.UI (Xabaril) internally uses IdentityModel for some scenarios (e.g., OAuth2 discovery, client credentials). In certain dependency graphs, IdentityModel isn’t copied to the output when it’s only a transitive dependency. Then the HealthChecks UI background collector fails with “Could not load file or assembly 'IdentityModel, Version=5.2.0.0'”.

• Quick fix (per project failing at runtime, e.g., *.Web and *.ApiHost):

  1. Add an explicit package reference to IdentityModel 5.2.0 (the version your error requests):

<ItemGroup>
    <PackageReference Include="IdentityModel" Version="5.2.0" />
  </ItemGroup>

2. Clean and rebuild the solution.

• Microservice template HealthChecks configuration check:
  • In your HealthChecksBuilderExtensions (or equivalent), ensure the UI is configured normally; nothing extra is required beyond adding the package when the assembly resolution problem occurs. Example pattern:

services
      .AddHealthChecks()
      .AddCheck<MyProjectNameDatabaseCheck>("Database");

  services.AddHealthChecksUI(settings =>
  {
      settings.AddHealthCheckEndpoint("Self", "/health-status"); // or your configured URL
  })
  .AddInMemoryStorage();

• If you are running containerized/k8s and want to use machine name, you may set:

settings.AddHealthCheckEndpoint("Self", $"http://{System.Net.Dns.GetHostName()}/health-status");

Otherwise keep using the configured healthCheckUrl string.

• Why this is safe: The IdentityModel package is a pure client library (no side effects if unused at runtime) and matches the HealthChecks UI’s transitive expectation. Adding it explicitly pins the assembly and avoids loader failures.

• Optional: Align HealthChecks packages

  • Ensure the Xabaril packages you use (AspNetCore.HealthChecks.UI, AspNetCore.HealthChecks.UI.Client, etc.) are on compatible versions across your services. If you see similar loader issues with other assemblies, update these packages consistently so their transitive dependencies match.

1. Solution

• Why it happens

  • In Blazor Web App (WASM + Server), the initial prerender builds the menu on the server with server-side feature values. When the WASM client hydrates, it replaces the menu using feature values coming from the application-configuration endpoint. If your custom features are not included in that payload, any menu items with RequireFeatures(...) will be hidden after hydration.

• Fix step-by-step

  1. Make features visible to the client
  • Define your features with isVisibleToClients: true. Also ensure the feature group exists before adding features.

public class SaasFeaturesDefinitionProvider : FeatureDefinitionProvider
  {
      public override void Define(IFeatureDefinitionContext context)
      {
          var group = context.GetGroupOrNull(ModulesFeatures.Main)
                     ?? context.AddGroup(ModulesFeatures.Main, L("MainFeatures"));

          group.AddFeature(
              SaasFeatures.Saas,
              defaultValue: "true",
              displayName: L(SaasFeatures.Saas),
              isVisibleToClients: true // critical for WASM menu visibility
          );
      }

      private static LocalizableString L(string name)
          => LocalizableString.Create<PlatformResource>("Features:" + name);
  }

2. Ensure the provider is discovered by the server that serves abp/application-configuration

• The assembly that contains SaasFeaturesDefinitionProvider must be part of the HttpApi.Host (or the Blazor Web App server host) module graph.
• Add module dependency to the host’s Domain module (and reference the NuGet/assembly):

[DependsOn(
      typeof(AbpFeaturesModule),
      typeof(Payhas.Common.FeaturesModule) // your package/module that defines groups & features
  )]
  public class PlatformDomainModule : AbpModule
  {
  }

• The server project must reference the NuGet/Project so ABP scans the FeatureDefinitionProvider at startup.

3. Verify the feature actually reaches the client

• After running, check the response of:
  • GET /abp/application-configuration?IncludeLocalizationResources=true
• Under features.values you should see an entry for "ModulesFeatures.Main.Saas" (or your full name). If it’s missing, the client will hide your menu item.
• If missing:
  • Restart the server after adding the provider and dependencies.
  • Ensure IsVisibleToClients is true.
  • Ensure the current side (host/tenant) has the feature enabled. Default values are used only when no stored value exists.

4. Use RequireFeatures on menu items (unchanged on your side)

var saas = context.Menu.GetMenuItem(SaasHostMenus.GroupName);
  saas.RequireFeatures(SaasFeatures.Saas);

5. Notes for tiered WASM + Server modules

• It’s fine that modules are “Blazor Server” only. What matters is that the server host contains the feature definition provider in its module dependency chain so that the Application Configuration endpoint can include your features.
• If your feature groups are defined in a shared NuGet, ensure that NuGet is referenced by the host and the module exposing the FeatureDefinitionProvider depends on it so context.AddGroup/GetGroupOrNull targets the same group name.

6. Caching tip (only if values change and you don’t see updates)

• The client reads features from the Application Configuration endpoint, which is cached by default on the client side. Reloading the page after changing features is typically enough; server-side feature store uses distributed cache. Ensure your distributed cache (e.g., Redis) is correctly configured in all services that participate.

• Expected outcome

  • With isVisibleToClients: true and the provider included in the host’s module graph, your custom feature appears in application-configuration.features.values and the menu items protected by RequireFeatures(...) will remain visible after WASM hydration.

1. Solution

• What “File Sharing” is: It is a built-in feature of the ABP Commercial File Management module that allows you to generate an anonymous, shareable link for a file so that users without authentication can access it. It is part of the module’s UI and application layer; you don’t need a separate provider or package for “sharing.”
• Availability and UI: The feature is available in the Commercial File Management module for all supported UIs of the module, including MVC. You must have the File Management module installed and configured in your solution and have the related permissions to see and use the Share action in the File Manager UI.
• Storage providers: File sharing works regardless of which blob provider you use because the module stores file contents via ABP’s Blob Storing abstraction. You can use File System, Database, or Azure providers, and the sharing functionality still works (sharing is implemented at the application/module level, not as a capability of a specific provider).
• Version notes: Use the File Management module version that matches your ABP solution version. The feature is part of the module; no special version gating per provider is required. If you’re on 9.34, use the corresponding commercial package version for that ABP release.

Setup steps (MVC):

1. Install the module:
   • abp add-module Volo.FileManagement
   • Run your DbMigrator to apply migrations.
2. Configure a blob provider for File Management’s container (example: File System):

private void ConfigureBlobStoring(IConfiguration configuration)
   {
       Configure<AbpBlobStoringOptions>(options =>
       {
           options.Containers.Configure<FileManagementContainer>(c =>
           {
               c.UseFileSystem(fs =>
               {
                   fs.BasePath = configuration["FileManagement:BasePath"]; // e.g. "D:\\abp-files"
               });
               // You can alternatively use Database or Azure providers.
           });
       });
   }

3. Add the module to your Web module dependencies if not already added:

[DependsOn(
       typeof(FileManagementWebModule) // plus other module deps
   )]
   public class YourProjectWebModule : AbpModule
   { }

4. Ensure permissions are granted:
   • Grant File Management permissions (at least to view directories/files and to “Share” files) to your role/user. Without the permission, the Share action will not be visible in the UI.
5. Use the File Manager UI:
   • Navigate to the File Management page from the main menu, upload a file, open Actions for a file, and toggle “Enable file sharing.” The module will generate a shareable link you can copy. Anyone with the link can access the file.

Key points:

• Not tied to a specific provider.
• No special configuration beyond installing the File Management module, configuring any blob provider, and granting permissions.
• The sharing link is generated and served by the module; it does not depend on Azure SAS or similar provider-native sharing mechanisms.

1. Solution In MVC UI, the dynamic JavaScript proxies (/Abp/ServiceProxyScript) only include application services that are exposed by conventional HTTP API controllers in the current host and not excluded by [RemoteService]. Since your Swagger shows the custom endpoints correctly and the static C# client proxy is generated, the missing entries in ServiceProxyScript typically come from one of the following:

• The custom app service type is not picked up by the Auto API Controller convention in the AMLReportService HttpApi layer.
• The service is exposed under a different remote service name or API group and the JS proxy endpoint you load does not include that module/service.
• The service or its methods are excluded via [RemoteService(false)] on the class or methods.
• You are loading the ServiceProxyScript from a different host (tiered) that doesn’t expose those controllers.

Fix/checklist:

• Ensure conventional HTTP API controllers are created for the AMLReportService application assembly. In your AMLReportService HttpApi project/module (typically Xxx.HttpApi), configure Auto API controllers for the assembly that contains CustomStaticDataTypeAppService:

using Volo.Abp.AspNetCore.Mvc;
  using Volo.Abp.Modularity;

  [DependsOn(
      typeof(AbpAspNetCoreMvcModule),
      typeof(AmlReportServiceApplicationModule) // your app module
  )]
  public class AmlReportServiceHttpApiModule : AbpModule
  {
      public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
      {
          Configure<AbpAspNetCoreMvcOptions>(options =>
          {
              options.ConventionalControllers.Create(typeof(AmlReportServiceApplicationModule).Assembly);
          });
      }
  }

If CustomStaticDataTypeAppService resides in a different assembly, pass that assembly instead.

• Do not exclude the service with [RemoteService(false)]. If you have base classes or interfaces with that attribute, override it on the derived service:

[RemoteService(true)]
  public class CustomStaticDataTypeAppService : StaticDataTypeAppService, ICustomStaticDataTypeAppService
  {
      // ...
  }

• Verify the remote service name/group for your controller so the JS proxy endpoint includes it. If you changed the controller name with [RemoteService(Name = "AmlReportService")] or ApiExplorerGroupName, ensure you request the correct group from the ServiceProxyScript if you are filtering by module. For example:

  • Default full script: /Abp/ServiceProxyScript
  • Filtered: /Abp/ServiceProxyScript?module=AmlReportService (only if you configured modules and consume a subset)

• If you are in a tiered setup, ensure the MVC/UI application points to and loads the ServiceProxyScript from the AMLReportService HttpApi host that actually exposes the controllers. Load and inspect:

  • https://your-amlreportservice-host/Abp/ServiceProxyScript Search for “customStaticDataType” or your service/method names there. If it appears on the AMLReportService host but not on your MVC host, then your MVC app is including the script from its own host rather than from AMLReportService. Include the script tag from the correct remote host or configure the UI to fetch remote proxies.

• Use only async methods in app services. JS proxies are generated for the HTTP endpoints created from async methods (Task/Task<T>) on IApplicationService. Your signatures already look async; keep that.

• Clear caches/restart and re-check: since ServiceProxyScript is generated on request, restart the HttpApi host after code changes and hard-refresh the browser to avoid caching.

Quick verification flow:

1. Browse the exact host that exposes the APIs: {AmlReportServiceHost}/Abp/ServiceProxyScript and search for “customStaticDataType”.
2. If missing there, your conventional controller mapping isn’t including the assembly. Add options.ConventionalControllers.Create(...) as shown.
3. If present there but missing on the MVC app, make the MVC app include that same script from the AMLReportService host.

1. Solution

• Why sorting fails
  • The Users page sends a dynamic sorting string (e.g., MyField asc) to EfCoreIdentityUserRepository.GetListAsync, which uses System.Linq.Dynamic.Core to apply OrderBy on IQueryable<IdentityUser>. If your extra property is only defined as an object extension (extraProperties JSON) and not mapped as an EF Core property on the entity (shadow property), OrderBy can’t find the member on IdentityUser and throws “No property or field ‘MyField’ exists...”.
• Fix sorting for extended properties
  1. Map the extra property to a real EF Core property on IdentityUser so it becomes a model member EF can translate and Dynamic LINQ can OrderBy:

// In YourProjectNameEfCoreEntityExtensionMappings.Configure()
     ObjectExtensionManager.Instance
         .MapEfCoreProperty<IdentityUser, string>(
             MyConsts.MyPropertyName,
             (entityBuilder, propertyBuilder) =>
             {
                 propertyBuilder.HasMaxLength(128);
                 // optional: propertyBuilder.HasDefaultValue("");
                 // optional: add index/unique/etc.
             }
         );

 - Ensure this mapping executes before DbContext model building (use the generated EfCoreEntityExtensionMappings class).
 - Add a migration and update the database.

2. If you already mapped it, ensure the sorting header sends the exact mapped property name (case-sensitive for Dynamic LINQ) and not a display text. For Blazor data table columns, set Field to the exact member name used in MapEfCoreProperty (e.g., "MyPropertyName").
3. If you intentionally keep the value only in ExtraProperties (JSON field), you can’t dynamically OrderBy that member directly. In that case, either:
   • Project to a DTO with a computed column and sort in memory after materialization (not recommended for paging/large data), or
   • Create a database computed column and map it via MapEfCoreProperty, then sort by that mapped property.

• UI visibility OnCreateForm ignored (Blazor Server)
  • ABP’s module entity extension UI configuration supports per-surface visibility:

ObjectExtensionManager.Instance.Modules().ConfigureIdentity(identity =>
    {
        identity.ConfigureUser(user =>
        {
            user.AddOrUpdateProperty<Guid?>(
                MyConsts.MyPropertyName,
                options =>
                {
                    options.DefaultValue = null;
                    options.UI.OnTable.IsVisible = true;
                    options.UI.OnCreateForm.IsVisible = false;
                    // optionally:
                    // options.UI.OnEditForm.IsVisible = true;
                }
            );
        });
    });

• Notes:

  • This only affects the auto-generated extension-props part of the form. If you have overridden the Identity Users Blazor page/components, your override can re-render properties regardless of the flags.
  • If the property is required and hidden on create, you will get validation errors on save. Use a default value, make it optional for create, or set a server-side default.
  • Ensure your extension configuration runs in the Domain.Shared module (or a module loaded before UI) and only once. A common pattern is using OneTimeRunner.
  • If it still appears, clear the UI cache and ensure you’re not customizing the user page. For customized pages, move or remove the property manually in your razor/partial.

• End-to-end checklist for your case (ABP 9.1.3, Blazor Server, SQL Server)

  1. Ensure EF Core mapping exists for sorting:

// Domain.EfCore project
     public static class YourProjectEfCoreEntityExtensionMappings
     {
         private static readonly OneTimeRunner OneTimeRunner = new OneTimeRunner();

         public static void Configure()
         {
             OneTimeRunner.Run(() =>
             {
                 ObjectExtensionManager.Instance
                     .MapEfCoreProperty<IdentityUser, string>(
                         MyConsts.MyPropertyName,
                         (_, p) =>
                         {
                             p.HasMaxLength(128);
                         }
                     );
             });
         }
     }

 - Call YourProjectEfCoreEntityExtensionMappings.Configure() during pre-DbContext configuration (usually in your EntityFrameworkCore module’s ConfigureServices).
 - Run Add-Migration and Update-Database.

2. Ensure the UI column binds to the mapped name:
   • In the Blazor Users page column definition, set Field="MyPropertyName" (the exact mapped name).
3. Keep/create form visibility:
   • Keep your existing options.UI flags as shown above.
   • If the property is still visible on create, check for a local override of UserManagement page. If overridden, adjust the layout to respect IsVisible or remove the property from the create form section.

1. Solution

• Root cause

  • In Blazor Web App, menus are built on the server first, then the client (WASM-side) re-hydrates and re-evaluates feature/permission requirements using values coming from the Application Configuration endpoint. If your custom feature definitions are not exposed to the client, RequireFeatures(...) will hide items after client load.
  • Features are only sent to the client if each feature definition:
    • Belongs to a registered Feature Group, and
    • Is visible to clients (IsVisibleToClients = true), and
    • The FeatureDefinitionProvider is discovered in the running app (module dependency path).

• What to do

  1. Ensure your FeatureDefinition is visible to clients

public class SaasFeaturesDefinitionProvider : FeatureDefinitionProvider
  {
      public override void Define(IFeatureDefinitionContext context)
      {
          var group = context.GetGroupOrNull(ModulesFeatures.Main)
                     ?? context.AddGroup(ModulesFeatures.Main, L("MainFeatures"));

          group.AddFeature(
              SaasFeatures.Saas,
              defaultValue: "true",
              displayName: L(SaasFeatures.Saas),
              isVisibleToClients: true // <<< important
          );
      }

      private static LocalizableString L(string name)
          => LocalizableString.Create<PlatformResource>("Features:" + name);
  }

2. Make sure the Feature Group exists in the same Define call path

• If your ModulesFeatures.Main group is defined in a shared NuGet, ensure that group is created before adding features. If not already created in that package, add it as shown above with context.AddGroup(...).

3. Verify the module dependency path so the provider is discovered

• The assembly that contains SaasFeaturesDefinitionProvider must be referenced and its module must be depended on by the application:

[DependsOn(
      typeof(AbpFeaturesModule)
      // + your package/module that contains the FeatureDefinitionProvider
  )]
  public class PlatformDomainModule : AbpModule
  {
  }

• Ensure the package is referenced by the final app (HttpApi.Host for server, and the Blazor project if it needs types). The provider must be in a module that is part of the server app’s module graph so the server can define and expose features.

4. Do not mark the feature as not visible later

• Avoid setting IsVisibleToClients = false anywhere via options or additional providers.

5. Confirm from the client that the feature is delivered

• After the above changes, the application-configuration response should include your feature under features.values.
• If it still doesn’t appear, clear caches and ensure you’ve run the migrator and restarted the app.

6. Using RequireFeatures on the menu

• With the feature now visible to clients, the item will remain visible after client load:

var saas = context.Menu.GetMenuItem(SaasHostMenus.GroupName);
  saas.RequireFeatures(SaasFeatures.Saas);

7. Notes on defaultValue and database values

• defaultValue: "true" is used only if there is no stored value. If you manage the feature in UI, the database value takes precedence.

• Ensure the tenant/host you are testing has the feature enabled in the Features modal.

• Quick checklist

  • [ ] Feature group exists (context.AddGroup or previously defined).
  • [ ] AddFeature(... isVisibleToClients: true).
  • [ ] Provider assembly is loaded and module is in dependency chain.
  • [ ] application-configuration features.values contains your key.
  • [ ] Menu item uses RequireFeatures with the correct full feature name.

2. Sources

• Features basics and client visibility:
  • https://github.com/abpframework/abp (project source reference)
  • This approach aligns with the official “Features” documentation statement: “A feature value is available at the client side too, unless you set IsVisibleToClients to false on the feature definition.”

1. Solution To get a bearer access token for a tenant user using Postman (for ABP 8.x with separated Auth Server/OpenIddict), use the standard OAuth2/OpenID Connect token endpoint. Then you can reuse the same token in JMeter.

Follow these steps:

• Determine your Auth Server base URL

  • For separated AuthServer in Angular solutions, it’s typically like: https://localhost:44322
  • The discovery document shows exact endpoints at: https://localhost:44322/.well-known/openid-configuration
  • The token endpoint will be: https://localhost:44322/connect/token

• Create or confirm a client that allows the password flow

  • In your Auth Server’s data seed (or via UI), ensure a client exists that supports:
    • grant_types: password (Resource Owner Password)
    • allowed scopes: openid, profile, email, phone, roles, offline_access plus your API scopes (e.g., YourProjectName)
    • If required, set ClientSecret and RequireClientSecret accordingly.
  • If you don’t have a password-enabled client, you can alternatively use the Authorization Code flow in Postman’s OAuth2 helper, but for automation/password-based login you need the password grant configured.

• Postman request to get the token (password grant)

  • Method: POST
  • URL: https://localhost:44322/connect/token
  • Headers:
    • Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
    • For multi-tenancy, add: Abp-TenantId: <tenant-guid> (or use the tenant-specific host if you use domain/subdomain tenant resolution)
      • If your app uses subdomains per tenant (e.g., https://tenant1.yoursite.com), you don’t need Abp-TenantId; use the tenant host to reach the same token endpoint domain.
  • Body (x-www-form-urlencoded):
    • grant_type: password
    • username: <tenant-user-username-or-email>
    • password: <tenant-user-password>
    • client_id: <your-client-id>
    • client_secret: <your-client-secret> (if the client requires a secret)
    • scope: openid profile email phone roles offline_access <YourApiScope1> <YourApiScope2>
  • Send. The response contains access_token, token_type, expires_in, and optionally refresh_token.

• Important multi-tenancy notes

  • If your solution uses header/cookie based tenancy (not domain-based), include either:
    • Abp-TenantId header with the tenant’s Id, or
    • X-Tenant (older patterns) if you customized it.
  • If you use domain/subdomain based tenancy, call the token endpoint on the tenant domain so OpenIddict issues a token for that tenant context.
  • Don’t rely on /account/login for API tokens. It’s cookie-based and will interfere with Postman. Always use /connect/token for bearer tokens.
  • If you previously called /account/login in Postman, clear cookies before calling /connect/token (cookies can cause 400/CSRF or wrong flow). In Postman, open Cookies for the domain and remove them.

• Use the token in JMeter

  • Take the access_token value and set an HTTP Header Manager with:
    • Authorization: Bearer <access_token>
    • For multi-tenancy (if not domain-based), also add Abp-TenantId: <tenant-guid>
  • Optionally, automate token retrieval in JMeter with a pre-HTTP sampler that posts to /connect/token and saves access_token to a JMeter variable for subsequent samplers.

• Example curl (equivalent to Postman) curl -X POST "https://localhost:44322/connect/token" ^ -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" ^ -H "Abp-TenantId: 11111111-1111-1111-1111-111111111111" ^ --data-urlencode "grant_type=password" ^ --data-urlencode "username=admin@mytenant.com" ^ --data-urlencode "password=1q2w3E*" ^ --data-urlencode "client_id=MyAngular_App" ^ --data-urlencode "client_secret=1q2w3e*" ^ --data-urlencode "scope=openid profile email roles offline_access MyProjectName"

If you prefer client credentials (app-to-app, no user), use:

• grant_type: client_credentials
• Remove username/password
• Keep client_id, client_secret, and scopes for your APIs
• Still include Abp-TenantId if your service access must be tenant-scoped.

2. Sources

• OpenIddict token flow examples and usage in ABP community articles (password flow and token acquisition were demonstrated and discussed across support threads and samples). No single official page precisely documents Postman steps for tenant tokens, but this approach aligns with ABP’s OpenIddict usage and is consistent with official guidance to use /connect/token rather than cookie-based endpoints.
