Hello, how do you enable security on the WebAPI so the use has to be logged in before accessing the data?

Security on the Api is managed using Asp.Net Identity. This wizard option "Use Asp.net Identity" has to be selected when the wizard is first used to create the project. It will then generate .net identity tables if required in the db, as well as security code and the required attributes on the Api functions. It cannot be retrofitted if not selected at wizard creation time.
For an example of security on the API, create an MVC app using the wizard and select the identity option. You will then be required to login to the app, and the API is configured to require authentication.
