• What is the current result?
  The layout renderer does not populate the value.
• What is the expected result?
  The value is populated.
• Did you checked the Internal log?
  Yes
• Please post full exception details (message, stacktrace, inner exceptions)

2018-06-12 12:57:06.1501 Error Error parsing layout aspnet-user-indentity will be ignored. Exception: System.ArgumentException: LayoutRenderer cannot be found: 'aspnet-user-indentity'. Is NLog.Web not included?
   at NLog.Config.Factory`2.CreateInstance(String name)
   at NLog.Layouts.LayoutParser.GetLayoutRenderer(ConfigurationItemFactory configurationItemFactory, String name)

• Are there any workarounds?
  None that I am aware. The NLog.Web package lists the NLog.Web.AspNetCore as the correct package to use. The dependencies on nuget.org list NLog.Extensions.Logging as required, however that package states its not applicable.
• Is there a version in which it did work?
  I have not tried other versions. What is the correct set of dependencies, and is this is an asp.net core 2.1 issue or am I missing a package that was not automatically resolved by the VS package manager?

@jcasale You have a small spelling error: ${aspnet-user-indentity} should be ${aspnet-user-identity}

Words cannot convey the level of personal failure and shame:) It's now logging the account name...
