title: Get user data from bearer token web api
body: <p>I am implementing .NET Web API 2 in C# using. This works fine, i send the username and password and a bearer token is returned.</p>
  
  <p>Now the token is used for other API calls, but in each call i would like to know the user data. This is because any app could call the web API such as from python code etc, in such cases it will only send bearer token but not user name.</p>
  
  <p>I tried to dig through the code but could not locate it.</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas would be most appreciated here.</p>
