Asp.Net Identity - Setting CookieDomain at runtime

How can I set the CookieDOmain in the CookieAuthenticationOptions at runtime if i want to pull this value from the Request.Url or from some settings stored in my database?

I want to support sub-domains, but also support multi-tenants too which each have different domains.

At the moment this is configured I don't have access to either of these.

You can assign your own cookie provider:

CookieAuthProvider myProvider = new CookieAuthProvider();
app.UseCookieAuthentication(new CookieAuthenticationOptions
{
   AuthenticationType = DefaultAuthenticationTypes.ApplicationCookie,
   LoginPath = new PathString("/Account/Login"),
   Provider = myProvider
});

Either implement your own, or simply inherit from the existing provider:

public class CookieAuthProvider : CookieAuthenticationProvider
{
    public override void ResponseSignIn(CookieResponseSignInContext context)
    {
      //Alter you cookie options
      //context.CookieOptions.Domain  =  "www...";      
      base.ResponseSignIn(context);
    }
 }

And implement ResponseSignIn, it is called when an endpoint has provided sign in information before it is converted into a cookie. By implementing this method the claims and extra information that go into the ticket may be altered.

You'll be passed a CookieResponseSignInContext, which exposes CookieOptions property that can be replaced or altered during the ResponseSignIn call.
