The idea with IDPs and SSO is that the Authentication server collects username and credentials.  The app NEVER sees them. 

We do have a REST api that you can invoke to valid a user and obtain a token.  If you use this though, and you don't let keycloak gather username/credentials itself through the browser, then SSO just won't work. The auth server needs to set up an SSO cookie with your browser for SSO to work.

Hello,

I have followed the keycloak "customer-portal" demo to learn KeyCloak, and want to use it in an application, but have no idea of how to start with KeyCloak. This is what I need:

On my home page, there is a typical user name login and registration box, as you can see in many sites. How to configure KeyCloak and register in my application so that after user types username and password, then Keyclaok will do the job for me.

In the customer-demo, the user first click a link "customer-linking", which redirects to the KeyCloak server for authentication, and this is configured in Web.xml, in particular this section:

<security-constraint>
        <web-resource-collection>
            <web-resource-name>Customers</web-resource-name>
            <url-pattern>/customers/*</url-pattern>
        </web-resource-collection>
        <auth-constraint>
            <role-name>user</role-name>
        </auth-constraint>
    </security-constraint>

In my case, users don't have to click a link to re-direct to Keycloak server to accept user input. My home page directly provides users with the user and password fields in the html form. How can i extend or modify the customer-portal demo to set up a very basic user login functionality in KeyClaok for my application? 

I understand this is probably something very basic, but I appreciate any feed back and information to achieve this.

Thank you.
