[keycloak-dev] keycloak-dev Digest, Vol 58, Issue 16

Hi,

I am using keycloak 3.4.1 final on docker with PostgreSQL. I have written a
spring boot application using keycloak admin client. The problem i am
facing is that when i make several request on a particular api for example
creating a user in keycloak it gets halt and does not respond.
For example : Create user api
after 10 successful request it does not process the 11th request and
postman or restlet client shows "sending request" . After halting state it
does not process any other api request until and unless i restart my spring
boot application. I am not getting what is the issue. I have checked all
the credentials and my application settings as well. Is there any rate
limit on api calling in keycloak or there is some other issue ??

Regards

Umer
