title: Token authorization for webApi controller in an MVC 5 project
body: <p>I'm looking for a way to do token authentication for the Web API controllers I have created within an MVC 5 application (I need a way to do it without creating a separate Web API project within the solution). My endpoints are in the Controllers folder at the project level and the controller types are Web API 2 Controllers. How can I generate a token for a user that logs in on the mobile application that uses the Web API and use that token for the endpoints that are contained in the API?</p>
