How to install IdentityServer4.Templates in Visual studio 2019 and .net core 3.1 cli? about identityserver4.templates

[MasonThornberg]

I had the same issue, but was able to resolve it by specifying the most current version, found here:

https://www.nuget.org/packages/IdentityServer4.Templates

dotnet new --install IdentityServer4.Templates::4.0.1

[leastprivilege]

I am pushing a new version today. Maybe that fixes the problems.

A little late to this one, but I just noticed that this only works if you're running the command in a Windows command prompt that's running as administrator. Figured I'd add this here so someone else might find this in the future and not waste their time.

works on my machines.

[gbjbaanb]

doesn't work on my machines either - dotnet new -i in the template dir produces the results with the is4 templates.

Change directory and try "dotnet new -l" returns a list, without the is4 templates.

[nhonoskywalker]

What are the requirements to make it work? It does not work for me.

[Shoogn]

It does not work for me.

[MrTomZed]

It does not work for me either. And I can't seem to get any tutorial working that starts from the ground up :(

[headygains]

Yeah I also cannot get the templates to install. However it appears that it is related to 401 auth errors to the nuget repos.

You can manually download the samples from https://github.com/IdentityServer/IdentityServer4 ->Samples/Quickstart and start from there. For the most part those samples are what you create in the official tutorials: https://identityserver4.readthedocs.io/en/aspnetcore1/quickstarts/1_client_credentials.html
