Hi,

Try https://www.jerriepelser.com/blog/introducing-the-yahoo-linkedin-oauth-security-providers-for-owin/

It should be very similar to the documentation you found already for other Owin authentication providers. You are using https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/web-pages/overview/getting-started/introducing-aspnet-web-pages-2/getting-started from ASP.NET 4.x and want to keep this unchanged ?

Are you new as well to Owin? See https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/aspnet/overview/owin-and-katana/getting-started-with-owin-and-katana

It allows to add the authentication step as a "middleware" inside a "pipeline" that is processing the incoming http query to produce a response (basically it is the ancestor of what you have now with ASP.NET Core middlewares).
