c# - Bearer authentication in Swagger UI, when migrating to Swashbuckle.AspNetCore version 5

Question

I'm trying to migrate from version 4.0.1 to 5.0.0-rc2 of Swashbuckle in a .NET Core 3 Preview 5 Web API project.

I've got the project compiling and the Swagger UI working, but I can't get Bearer authentication to work, which I think is due to me not setting up the new format security correctly.

This is my old code that worked in version 4:

c.AddSecurityDefinition("Bearer", new ApiKeyScheme
{
    Description = "JWT Authorization header using the Bearer scheme. 

 Enter 'Bearer' [space] and then your token in the text input below.

Example: "Bearer 12345abcdef"",
    Name = "Authorization",
    In = "header",
    Type = "apiKey"
});

var security = new Dictionary<string, IEnumerable<string>>
{
    {"Bearer", new string[] { }},
};

c.AddSecurityRequirement(security);

And this is what I've changed it to for v5:

c.AddSecurityDefinition("Bearer", new OpenApiSecurityScheme
{
    Description = "JWT Authorization header using the Bearer scheme. 

 Enter 'Bearer' [space] and then your token in the text input below.

Example: "Bearer 12345abcdef"",
    Name = "Authorization",
    In = ParameterLocation.Header,
    Type = SecuritySchemeType.ApiKey,
    Scheme = "tomsAuth"
});

c.AddSecurityRequirement(new OpenApiSecurityRequirement
{
    {
        new OpenApiSecurityScheme
        {
            Reference = new OpenApiReference {
                Type = ReferenceType.SecurityScheme,
                Id = "tomsAuth" }
        }, new List<string>() }
});

I think my issue is probably in this part of the code:

        new OpenApiSecurityScheme
        {
            Reference = new OpenApiReference {
                Type = ReferenceType.SecurityScheme,
                Id = "tomsAuth" }
        }, new List<string>() }

I think that bit should probably have "Bearer" in it somewhere, but I'm not sure where?

Additional info

This is how I'm setting up the JWT authentication in the first place. This code hasn't changed and was working when I was using Swashbuckle 4.0.1:

    var appSettings = appSettingsSection.Get<AppSettings>();
    var key = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(appSettings.Secret);

    services.AddAuthentication(x =>
    {
        x.DefaultAuthenticateScheme = JwtBearerDefaults.AuthenticationScheme;
        x.DefaultChallengeScheme = JwtBearerDefaults.AuthenticationScheme;
    })
    .AddJwtBearer(x =>
    {
        x.Events = new JwtBearerEvents
        {
            OnTokenValidated = context =>
            {
                var userService = context.HttpContext.RequestServices.GetRequiredService<IApiUserService>();
                var userId = int.Parse(context.Principal.Identity.Name);
                var user = userService.GetById(userId);
                if (user == null)
                {
                    // return unauthorized if user no longer exists
                    context.Fail("Unauthorized");
                }

                return Task.CompletedTask;
            }
        };
        x.RequireHttpsMetadata = false;
        x.SaveToken = true;
        x.TokenValidationParameters = new TokenValidationParameters
        {
            ValidateIssuerSigningKey = true,
            IssuerSigningKey = new SymmetricSecurityKey(key),
            ValidateIssuer = false,
            ValidateAudience = false
        };
    });

Got this working in the end by trial and error. This is the code that works for me:

c.AddSecurityDefinition("Bearer", new OpenApiSecurityScheme
{
    Description =
        "JWT Authorization header using the Bearer scheme. 

 Enter 'Bearer' [space] and then your token in the text input below.

Example: "Bearer 12345abcdef"",
    Name = "Authorization",
    In = ParameterLocation.Header,
    Type = SecuritySchemeType.ApiKey,
    Scheme = "Bearer"
});

c.AddSecurityRequirement(new OpenApiSecurityRequirement()
{
    {
        new OpenApiSecurityScheme
        {
            Reference = new OpenApiReference
            {
                Type = ReferenceType.SecurityScheme,
                Id = "Bearer"
            },
            Scheme = "oauth2",
            Name = "Bearer",
            In = ParameterLocation.Header,

        },
        new List<string>()
    }
});

I suspect there are probably properties being set there that don't actually need to be explicitly set, but the above is working for me.
