Yes, JavaEE currently has no standard way of obtaining a user profile.

So if I understand correctly the only way to handle multiple
attributes of
the user (e.g name and email) is to use the Keycloak IDToken approach and
so be dependent on the Keycloak implementation (or create my own API that
wraps this)?

If you don't want Keycloak dependencies, you can use
request.getRemoteUser() or request.getPrincipal().getName() to access just
the userId of authenticated user. If you use "principal-attribute" in
keycloak.json, it will return the configured attribute instead of userId,
so you can receive for example username or email instead. But that way, you
will be able to access just this single attribute.

Wondered if anyone had any thoughts on this?

In the case of a web application (e.g. Tomcat app secured by the keycloak

(e.g. full name or email).
I've found that this information is available from the session like this:
KeycloakSecurityContext session =
(KeycloakSecurityContext)request.getAttribute(KeycloakSecurityContext.class.getName());
IDToken idToken = session.getIdToken();
String email = idToken.getEmail();
One issue with this is that all your web apps are tied to keycloak.
Is this the right way to handle this?
Are there alternatives?
