question

Hello,

You may use the following code in your global.asax to setup the job server but you won’t be able to use the dashboard without OWIN.

using Hangfire;
using System;

namespace WebAPI
{
    public class Global : System.Web.HttpApplication
    {
        private BackgroundJobServer _backgroundJobServer;
        protected void Application_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.UseSqlServerStorage("<hangfire connection string>");
            _backgroundJobServer = new BackgroundJobServer();
        }

        protected void Application_End(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            _backgroundJobServer.Dispose();
        }
    }
}
