[keycloak-dev] Missing client roles to view and manage groups?
Hi,
It seems there are no client roles to view and manage groups in Keycloak? I expected to
see view-groups and manage-groups roles just like view-users and view-groups.
Our case is that we want to have ‘functional admin’ users that are allowed to manage users
and groups within their realm (and nothing else).
I have now created such a functional admin user with the following client roles in this
particular realm:
- view-events
- manage-users
- view-users
- impersonation
When I log in as this functional admin user I can manage users fine, however I cannot
manage groups. I do see the ‘Manage Groups’ menu item in the admin console but when I
click on it I get a “Forbidden. You don't have access to the requested resource.” and
in the logs we see:
4:59:19,950 ERROR [org.jboss.resteasy.resteasy_jaxrs.i18n] (default task-2)
RESTEASY002005: Failed executing GET /admin/realms/graydon-customers/groups:

Is the absence of roles for viewing and managing groups a shortcoming in Keycloak? If so,
shall I create a JIRA ticket for it?
cheers
