#### ITargetingContextAccessor

To use the `TargetingFilter` in a web application an implementation of `ITargetingContextAccessor` is required. This is because when a targeting evaluation is being performed information such as what user is currently being evaluated is needed. This information is known as the targeting context. Different web applications may extract this information from different places. Some common examples of where an application may pull the targeting context are the request's HTTP context or a database.

Some common examples of where an application may pull the targeting context are the request's HTTP context or a database.

An example that extracts targeting context information from the application's HTTP context is included in the [FeatureFlagDemo](./examples/FeatureFlagDemo/HttpContextTargetingContextAccessor.cs) example project. This method relies on the use of `IHttpContextAccessor` which is discussed [here](./README.md#Using-HttpContext).

If the feature is enabled, the feature manager will check the `User`, `Group`, and `Percentile` allocations in that order to allocate a variant for this feature. If the user being evaluated is named `Marsha`, in the group named `Ring1`, or the user happens to fall between the 0 and 10th percentile calculated with the given `Seed`, then the specified variant is returned for that allocation. In this case, all of these would return the `Big` variant. If none of these allocations match, the `DefaultWhenEnabled` variant is returned, which is `Small`.

Allocation logic is similar to the [Microsoft.Targeting](./README.md#MicrosoftTargeting) feature filter, but there are some parameters that are present in targeting that aren't in allocation, and vice versa. The outcomes of targeting and allocation are not related.
Allocation logic is similar to the [Microsoft.Targeting](./README.md#MicrosoftTargeting) feature filter, but there are some parameters that are present in targeting that aren't in allocation, and vice versa. Like targeting, allocation can only access user information once an implementation of `ITargetingContextAccessor` has been added to the service collection. Without this service, allocation can only return default variants if they're specified. The outcomes of targeting and allocation are not related.
