Re: [keycloak-user] API Authorization: on request or response?

The problem here is that you got an access token (that you are using as a bearer to access Protection API) using resource owner password grant type (direct grant). That means the subject of the token is an user (username) and not the resource server itself. Only resource servers (your client application) are allowed to access the Protection API (and managed resources). The access token you got is valid to query for permissions though. As you want to obtain a set of permission an user has. Where the token represents user identity. You should fix that error by obtaining a access token for your client. Something like that (from docs): curl -X POST \ -H "Authorization: Basic aGVsbG8td29ybGQtYXV0aHotc2VydmljZTpwYXNzd29yZA==" \ -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \ -d 'grant_type=client_credentials' \ "http://localhost:8080/auth/realms/${realm_name}/protocol/openid-connect/token" On Tue, Nov 14, 2017 at 7:47 AM, Corentin Dupont < corentin.dupont(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote: > Thanks for the documentation, after reading it I found that I can use > "entitlement" endpoints for my use case. > So I do: > > TOKEN=`curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" > -d 'username=username&password=password&grant_type=password&cli > ent_id=myclient&client_secret=myclientsecret' " > http://localhost:8080/auth/realms/myrealm/protocol/openid-connect/token&q... > | jq .access_token -r` > > curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Authorization: > Bearer $TOKEN" -d '{ > "permissions" : [ > { > "resource_set_name" : "Houses", > "scopes" : [ > "view" > ] > } > ] > }' "http://localhost:8080/auth/realms/myrealm/authz/entitlement > /myclient" > > Is this correct?
