I have a hub in which the client makes a server call every 5 seconds to check if they have any new tasks to do. I know I can get the hub to get the connection ID, but how can I make it get the User Identity / user ID when they make the call? or will the client have to pass that value in?

Getting the user is pretty easy out of the box. If you want to get any more information though, you'll need to come up with a solution to handle it yourself.

You can get the user identity by using this in your hub. 

string name = User.Identity.Name;

or VB version

Dim name = User.Identity.Name
