Re: [keycloak-user] Authorization: proof of ownership

I see. But so I far I was considering that when you create "MyHouse" you would already have the owner. In this case, you would just need to check resource.owner == identity.id. What you are looking for seems to be related with https://issues.jboss.org/browse/KEYCLOAK-4903 and https://issues.jboss.org/browse/KEYCLOAK-5346. Where the former is about a client pushing additional claims to the authorization request and the latter that should allow you to delegate the decision to an external resource or API (e.g.: some HTTP endpoint in your application).
