Hello Tero, I have found my answer. Thanks to the Lead from a friend @Edem_Morny. You see, I am using JSF(PrimeFaces) and so @Context HttpServletRequest didn’t work for me. Rather this worked. So rather than passing the HttpServletRequest using the @Context annotation, I obtain same via the FacesContext.
FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
KeycloakSecurityContext session = (KeycloakSecurityContext) ((HttpServletRequest) context.getExternalContext()
.getRequest()).getAttribute(KeycloakSecurityContext.class.getName());
So this works for me now. Thanks greatly for your time.

Hi, This is my auth-constraint definition in my web.xml
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>keyconnect</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</web-resource-collection>
<role-name>customer</role-name>
<transport-guarantee>CONFIDENTIAL</transport-guarantee>
So, this is fine. Works well for me. I just want to after a successful login….retrieve the User who logged in.

Do u have auth-contraint in web.xml?
<role-name>somerolehere</role-name>
If there is not required role then no auth is needed.
Hello Stian, my reponse in blue below.
Did you actually add @SecurityDomain("keycloak")?
Does the request require authentication (does it have a security-constraint in web.xml)?
YES; The request say http://ip:port/context/index.html will be routed to Keycloak for the rquester to login. On successful log-in the requester is redirected back to the index.html. It is at this point I want to retrieve or know who the User is.

Hello, I am trying to retrieve information about the User logged into the webapp via keycloak. I have seen around information on using the following;
@SecurityDomain("keycloak")@Context
SecurityContext sc;
KeycloakPrincipal principal = (KeycloakPrincipal) sc.getUserPrincipal();
But the above line is returning a NullPointerException.
I must say, I have already done the required configuration; as in enabling the Keycloak Subsystem within my app server's server configuration: standalone.xml.
Please any lead on how to retrieve the logged in User via KeyCloak?
