Thanks a lot for this great content, a question I ask to myself since I have discovered Keycloak (2=3 weeks now) is about the redirection page. Is it possible to use my own login page to directly connect a new session transparently without any redirection ?
Hi Jean-Jaurès, You can implement your own theme so that the login page will look and feel the same just like your application. See here: www.keycloak.org/docs/latest/server_development/#_themes. But you will still have the redirect. You could implement your own login logic and do the HTTP POST - but that would require additional work from you (submit, read JWT, handle errors). I guess it all depends on how much you don’t like the redirect :) I myself don’t mind it, it’s how OAuth2 from GitHub/Twitter/Facebook works and most of the users are familiar and OK with it.
@@ukaszbudnik9618 Hi what do you mean about the HTTP POST? I have a separate setup where an external application is rendering my keycloak-secured application. I want to skip the login page directly (as user is logged in on the external app) by using the keycloak token exchange where i get the user access token with the client token. However i am unable to authenticate the user. user login external app -> call keycloak api to exchange token -> use access token to authenticate user -> render keycloak-secured app

Glad you like them!
Hi Lukasz, Unable to import the hotel_realm file. Is it because of a newer KeyCloak version?

@@ukaszbudnik9618 Yes you are right, Clearly the theming way is a better choice ! :)
