Question

I have a pretty simple method I’m calling on Page load, it looks like this

  Protected Sub identify()

    If User.Identity.IsAuthenticated Then

    Else
        Response.Redirect("login.aspx")
    End If
End Sub

What I want to do is throw a redirect depending on the role group the user is a part of. So if they are authenticated, but not part of the “Admins” user group, I’d redirect them to a different page….something like

  Protected Sub identify()

    If User.Identity.IsAuthenticated Then
       If user.Identiy.IsInRoleGroup("Admin")
         Response.Redirect("AdministratorDefault.aspx")
       End If
    Else
        Response.Redirect("login.aspx")
    End If
End Sub

Is something like this possible? I can’t find an answer.

Answer 1

If (User.IsInRole("Administrator"))
...
End If
