Keycloak REST API with Postman

Demonstrate how to use Keycloak's admin REST API with a postman client application.

For invoking a REST endpoint, client application should obtain an access token. After that the access token should be added to the authorization header of each REST API call as a bearer token.

OAuth 2.0 protocol is used to obtain access token.

Keycloak OIDC token endpoint: http://{HOST}/auth/realms/{REALM_NAME}/protocol/openid-connect/token

Base URL for REST API: http://{HOST}/auth/admin/realms​
(Host: localhost:8080 BasePath: /auth/admin/realms)

Example for listing users: GET http://{HOST}/auth/admin/realms/{REALM_NAME}/users

Ok shoutout to the main man here. Not only did he actually reply to a question, which a lot of tutorials on youtube would never do, he even offered a Google Meeting and helped me find out where my mistake is.
So if you ever see:
{
"error": "unauthorized_client",
"error_description": "INVALID_CREDENTIALS: Invalid client credentials"
}
make sure your client_id is written as client_id and not as client-id.
What did I learn? I really need to zoom in and look very closely.
The tutorial works perfectly fine if you follow it perfectly.
Big thumbs up to a channel that takes what it does seriously!

really good tutorial. I've spent 5h searching for that solution. This video helped me in 7 min, wow !

I can't change the attribute "enabled" sending a request from Spring Boot to the Rest Api of Keycloak. What should I take into account to do it? When I use Postman, everything is fine, but in my code I can only get access token and I can't send request to Rest Api, it returns 401 error.

How to bypass keyclock login from your react. I have a react application where i already have a login and i don't want to let clients log in again for keyclock. I want to have a menu item on my dashboard in react.js project and when someone clicks it redirects to keylock without login again.

Hi, so I got the access token and refresh token using the 'token_endpoint' url. How to make a login after getting this without redirecting to the keycloak login page? Can you help me with this please?

Thanks a lot! Please continue your playlist with more complex authentication like custom X509, may be create a premium course I would definitely enroll. 🙏🏽

Hello friend, do you know how I could use the logout endpoints, perhaps change the password for a user, with a public client?

Hi, wanted to know in case we have selected client access type as confidential then post man given error while connecting saying "client secret is missing" ..Which attribute I need to add in body to make the successful connection ...?

[arilebon]

Thank you -- this was very helpful.

Would it be possible to have the permissions attached to the client? I.e. grant 'realm admin' role to the 'rest client? And set the 'rest-client' to 'confidential'?

The above scenario for if an application is required to call the rest apis.
