Password-free login using email link
by Valerij Timofeev
Hi all,
we have a couple of use-cases where login is password-free and is based on
email link with a login key, for example:
* consumer is allowed to review merchant or product without registration
* customer receives confirmation email on review submission
* consumer logs in on a client application without password using a link in
the confirmation email, but is not authorized to update review comment
* if consumer logs in using username/email and password (e.g. after
registration), "update review comment" functionality becomes available
We have to support such use-cases, if we decide to adopt Keycloak.
I searched through Keycloak JIRA tickets, but found the only similar
feature request "Invitation email"
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/KEYCLOAK-439
Should I submit another feature request for our use case?
My vision:
* implement optional email-link authenticator (
http://keycloak.github.io/docs/userguide/html/auth_spi.html#auth_spi_walk...
)
* client application creates new user via Admin REST API
<http://keycloak.github.io/docs/userguide/html/admin-rest-api.html> and
sets credential type to "email_link" and value to login key. Then it sends
email including login link
* I suppose that it is difficult or even impossible to transmit query
parameters via Open ID Connect flow, so the link could point to unprotected
page storing username and login key in a cookie
* email-link authenticator checks presence of the email-link cookie and if
found tries to authenticate user using username and key values provided in
the cookie
* if no cookie is set or login fails, user is redirected to login form
Challenge: how to limit roles bound to user session if login type
"email_link" is used, may be via configuration parameter for this
authenticator? The rest of assigned roles should not appear in the user
session.
Thank you in advance

redesign, goes “password-free” http://www.siliconbeat.com/2015/10/15/yahoo/

Can Keycloak simulate LDAP server?
by Valerij Timofeev
Hi all,
we are interested to know if it is possible to authenticate users of pure
LDAP client against Keycloak?
Why? We are planning to migrate legacy user storage to Keycloak and we'd
like to avoid dead end if for example some product (e.g. SaaS) does not
support user authentication against Keycloak, but does against standard
LDAP server.
If it is impossible, has anybody succeeded to implement reverted direction
of user federation synchronization (all users data from Keycloak should be
copied to a fresh LDAP server installation)?
Answers to these questions may be decisive for the Keycloak usage in our
organization.
Thank you in advance

User Federation Provider and roles
by carmen
Hi all,
I am writing a user federation provider so we can authenticate users stored in a database.
Our roles are also stored there.
Is there an interface to provide roles to the realm and trap updates so changes to roles in keycloak effect changes in the DB?
Thanks
Maria

Sending Forgot-Password Mail via Admin API/Reverse Proxy
by Sebastian Rose
Hi all,
we have keycloak configured to live behind a reverse proxy and the external domain ist used in emails (e.g. forgot-passwd) -> fine.
For security reasons i want to use the internal url for the master-realm (externally not reachable). When i send a reset-password mail via the admin interface, the mail contains the wrong URL.
Is there anything i can do about it via configuration?
Best regards,
Sebastian

Re: [keycloak-user] Keycloak to set up Teams and Organizations
by Nic Grange
Thanks for the quick response.
Can an admin of the parent group administer sub groups?
Yes, I think so. It should be hierarchical. If you don’t want them to have that privilege then make them only admin of the sub-group.
I like the idea of each group having an "user-admin” role.
Say you have an application that allows users to create/modify/share documents.
I see Groups as useful for tagging the document with the Group Id (additionally to the User Id)
so that if another user logs in from the same group and the original user has chosen to allow this document to be shared within their group,
the application can securely retrieve all the documents that are shared within their group.
Hope this makes sense,
Nic
