Re: [aerogear-dev] Direct access to UnifiedPush Server's REST without OAuth

Thank you Stian. @tkriz @matzew Atm I'm working on the item 2 from Stian's comments, as soon as I get admin-ui integrated with keycloak.js. Once the integration is finished I can look at item 1 — IMO not a top priority ATM, because it only affects cURL. Correct me if I'm wrong.

It will authenticate through the bearer token passed in the headers. Any roles for UPS should be created for this application. Also, the KC adapter (BootstrapListener) is configured for this application, as that secures the REST endpoints > 2) A public application for the Admin Console - this applications allows logins. This should have scope mappings on roles in the application above.
