[keycloak-user] Admin client

It's aimed for users on our front-end integration, so we don't need to create a new theme since we don't need all the available options from the account-management page.

So if the user has a valid access token with manage account role, he will be able to make request to manage account API directly?

-1 That will create a user session. Add login events, etc.. It's messy..
What's the purpose of the REST API? Is it aimed at admins? If so they shouldn't know the users password in the first place. If it's aimed at users themselves make sure they have a valid access token with the manage account role.

Quick-and-dirty workaround: try to authenticate as the user. That will either succeed, or fail, which tells you if the provided password was correct.

    I think the admin client doesn't
      support this. If you are admin and you want to reset password of
      some user, you are not supposed to know the password of user
      anyway. Keycloak admin console also doesn't need to know existing
      user password when you want to reset password of user.

      Hi,

        

        I'm trying to implement a REST API for some basic user actions,
        like change password and would like to know if there's any way
        to validate the current user password before reset his password
        using the provide java API.

        

        Thanks,

        Bruno
