IdentityServer4 Role Based Authorization for Web API with ASP.NET Core Identity

I am using IdentityServer4 with .Net Core 2.1 and Asp.Net Core Identity. I have two projects in my Solution.

IdentityServer
Web API

I want to Protect my Web APIs, I use postman for requesting new tokens, It works and tokens are generated successfully. When I use [Authorize] on my controllers without Roles it works perfectly but when I use [Authorize(Roles="Student")] (even with [Authorize(Policy="Student")]) it always return 403 forbidden

Whats wrong with my code

Web API startup.cs

  public class Startup
    {
        public Startup(IConfiguration configuration)
        {
            Configuration = configuration;
        }

        public IConfiguration Configuration { get; }

        // This method gets called by the runtime. Use this method to add services to the container.
        public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
        {
            services.AddMvcCore()
            .AddAuthorization(options => options.AddPolicy("Student", policy => policy.RequireClaim("Role", "Student")))
            .AddAuthorization(options => options.AddPolicy("Teacher", policy => policy.RequireClaim("Role", "Teacher")))
            .AddAuthorization(options => options.AddPolicy("Admin", policy => policy.RequireClaim("Role", "Admin")))
            .AddJsonFormatters();

            services.AddAuthentication("Bearer")
                .AddIdentityServerAuthentication(options =>
                {
                    options.Authority = "http://localhost:5000";
                    options.RequireHttpsMetadata = false;
                    options.ApiName = "api1";
                });
        }

        // This method gets called by the runtime. Use this method to configure the HTTP request pipeline.
        public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IHostingEnvironment env)
        {
            if (env.IsDevelopment())
            {
                app.UseDeveloperExceptionPage();
            }
            app.UseAuthentication();
            app.UseMvc();
        }
    }

Test API :

  [Route("api/[controller]")]
    [ApiController]
    [Authorize(Roles="Student")]
    public class ValuesController : ControllerBase
    {
        // GET api/values
        [HttpGet]
        public ActionResult<IEnumerable<string>> Get()
        {
            return new string[] { "value1", "value2" };
        }

        // GET api/values/5
        [HttpGet("{id}")]
        public ActionResult<string> Get(int id)
        {
            return "value";
        }

        // POST api/values
        [HttpPost]
        public void Post([FromBody] string value)
        {
        }

        // PUT api/values/5
        [HttpPut("{id}")]
        public void Put(int id, [FromBody] string value)
        {
        }

        // DELETE api/values/5
        [HttpDelete("{id}")]
        public void Delete(int id)
        {
        }
    }

Claims While Using [Authorize]

Solution

In your Api, somewhere before services.AddAuthentication("Bearer") add a line for JwtSecurityTokenHandler.InboundClaimTypeMap.Clear();.
