Re: [keycloak-user] Authentication from embedded webpage
Do you have the "control" under the application? Is it possible to
propagate security contexts from application to embedded IE or viceversa?
In theory what can work is either:
- You will skip step1 and don't popup username/password box. Instead you
will just authenticate in step2 inside IE and then propagate the context
( token ) to step1. This is possible just if application is able to
access the javascript state from embedded IE.
- If you can propagate just from desktop to IE, then in step1 you wwill
configure your application to send the request for username/password
authentication to Keycloak via direct access grant (instead of sending
username+password directly to AD/LDAP). Once you receive token from
direct access grant, you can use it inside IE in step2 ( keycloak.js has
possibility to be initialized with token. You just need to pass the
token and refreshToken as arguments to keycloak.init . Then keycloak.js
won't redirect you to login screen )

Hello Team,
I have a standalone windows desktop application, that authenticates
against an AD/LDAP server. The application popups a username/password
box, and submits it to the LDAP for authentication.
The same AD/LDAP server is also synced with a Keycloak installation.
The windows application embeds the IE browser control and shows a jsp
page.
This jsp page is protected using keycloak js adapter. Obviously the
user is re-directed to the keycloak login page. So the user has to
login twice, once using the application popup and other in the
embedded jsp, after getting redirected to the keycloak login page.
I dont want to re-prompt the user for relogin, since he has already
authenticated against the AD server.
Is there a way to not re-prompt the user, when the embedded IE
requests the secure JSP?
Please help, as we are not able to come up with a solution for the same.
Any pointers how we can avoid the 2nd authentication.
Thanks,
Subhro.
