Hi Bill,

I'm familiar with the examples, however I'm looking for a way to grant third-party clients access to my API. Since they could be written in a variety of languages, I'd like them to be able to obtain a token in a defined way without being dependent on Keycloak. 

I suppose the approach Marek mentioned (OAuth spec section 4.3) should do the trick though (as long as you are planning to continue supporting it).

Cheers,
Nils

Bearer token security.  Take a look at the examples, specifically the
database-service.  This is a pure REST service secured by keyloak.

At the moment, we only have support for JBoss/Wildfly, but it wouldn't
take much to write an adapter for another java environment.
