Server setup - Authentication
SapphireDb allows to control permissions for specific operations with different mechanisms.
Setup
You have to configure your application to use identity or some other way of authentication. SapphireDb relies on the auth-mechanisms if Identity. After you have configured Identity you have to do a small adjustment to make SapphireDb work with that.

Access user details
To access the details of a user you can use the default methods provided by identity.
Whenever you get an instance of HttpInformation you can access the user details by accessing HttpInformation.User
