title: How to create a user and get the newly created ID with ASP.NET Identity
body: <p>I am new to the ASP.NET Identity framework and am trying to do some things that I used to do in the older FormsAuthentication framework.</p>
  
  <p>What I want to do is allow an administrative user to create a new user using the existing Register view (or similar) from within the app.  Once this is complete, I would like to relationally associate that user (possibly using the ID that is generated) to other areas of the system.</p>
  
  <p>How do I get access to the ID that is generated when calling UserManager.CreateAsync()?</p>
  
  <p>EDIT: I am wanting existing users with "administrative" roles to create users from within the system in a User Management area.  The answers below so far have explained how to get the ID for the "current" user which is not what I am looking for.</p>
