back in 2013 a web part was published on Codeplex which was called “ClaimsViewerWebPart”. I do not know who the author was, but since I stiil find it a really useful web part I decompiled the code and made a new project to support SharePoint 2019 and Subscription Edition.

Installation

To install a solution you need to open SharePoint Management Shell and run commands

Add-SPSolution -LiteralPath c:\temp\Xnet.SP.ClaimsViewerWebPart.wsp
 
Install-SPSolution -Identity Xnet.SP.ClaimsViewerWebPart.wsp -GACDeployment -WebApplication http://[mywebapp]

Activation

Once solution is installed, you can activate the web part and add it to your page.

In site collection administration, you need to find “Xnet – ClaimsViewerWebPart” feature and activate it.

Once activated, you can create a new page and add a web part that is found under Xnet category

When web part is added to the page, it will render all claims related to the currently logged on user account.

This web part is really useful when using SharePoint with OIDC and any other Idp which is not SharePoint default (e.g. Windows).
