How to access User in a service context in web API? : <p>If you are in a controller context, you can access the current authenticated User. Take an article such as <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21616951/get-the-current-user-within-an-apicontroller-action-without-passing-the-userid">Get the current user, within an ApiController action, without passing the userID as a parameter</a> .</p>

<p>However, if my controller calls a service (same assembly), but here I don't have the controller context.</p>

<p>What is the best way to actually get the authenticated user?</p>
