[keycloak-user] Custom entity mapping to User entity

[Eriksson Fabian]

Thank you for replying Marek!

We don't have an existing DB with our entities, but in order to fill the requirements for older applications we have we need to add custom entities to Keycloak which have to be linked to the User entity (just like the Group entities). Are these custom mappings something you support or would you still recommend creating our own User Provider?

Best Regards
Fabian Eriksson

If you already have some existing entity (which means that you have some existing DB with your entities), then it's probably best to write your own userStorage provider. See docs and examples for more details (The docs is work in progress though)
