Re: [keycloak-user] How to create the same client (same id) for multiple realms programmatically

Monday, 30 May 2016

Maybe someone already mentions it before. IMO the returning "Response" 
from the create methods on admin client is one of the biggest limitation 
of current admin-client. For example if we change ClientResources method:

@POST @Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
public Response create(ClientRepresentation clientRepresentation);

to something like:

@POST @Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
@Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
public ClientRepresentation create(ClientRepresentation clientRepresentation);

then the advantages will be:
- You won't need to parse the ID of newly created client from the URI 
location and call additional GET request to retrieve newly created 
client (You usually want newly created client when you are creating it)
- In case the error happened, the exception will be thrown on 
client-side too. With the "Response" object, the exception is not thrown 
on client-side but you are supposed to manually check the status code. 
This may be confusing for users, who are not so familiar with the admin 
client. When exception is thrown on client-side, it's crystal clear that 
something bad happened and client wasn't successfully created on server 
side.

Are there any disadvantages? The only one I see is, that POST responses 
from server will need to return the representation of created object, 
but that's maybe rather advantage (as you don't need to call additional 
GET request, which in 95% of cases you need).

 What's the status code for the response? It should be 409.

     Do you not get a error when trying to create it the second time
     with the same id? If not please create a jira.

         Thanks for your reply.

         My problem was that I have used setId instead of setClientId.

         You can use for example:

         RealmResource realm1 = *adminClient*.realms().realm(*"realm1"*);

         RealmResource realm2 = *adminClient*.realms().realm(*"realm2"*);

         realm1.clients().create(clientRepresentation);

         realm2.clients().create(clientRepresentation);

         For update you can take a look at some of our tests, which are
         updating client. For example this one :

https://github.com/mposolda/keycloak/blob/master/testsuite/integration-ar...

         Note that you need to know client Id (this is different thant
         clientId). The easiest is to set it manually in representation
         before you create client (via client.setId ) like it's done in
         this test.

             As a workaround how can I update existing client
             programmatically ? I couldn't find it in the admin API.

             Thanks again,

             Hi,

             I am trying to create the same client for many realms,
             however it creates it only once, probably because they
             have the same id, however in UI I am able to create it.

             Any idea how I can create the same client for different
             realms programmatically with the same id ?

             This is my code sample:

             ClientRepresentation clientRepresentation = *new *ClientRepresentation();

             clientRepresentation.setId(clientId); // Same clientId for
             all reamls

             realm.clients().create(clientRepresentation); // Client is
             created only for first realm

             Any advice will be appreciated,

             Haim.
