FYI:
My pull request https://github.com/keycloak/keycloak/pull/2219 adds support for extending the Keycloak REST API, among other things to support a full extension of the Keycloak datamodel.
Regards, Erik

Hello,

JIRA for searching by custom attributes already exists [1]. Hopefully we will add to 2.X, but we can't add to 1.9.X as it's new feature.

The custom REST endpoints are planned for Keycloak 2.X for sure.

Hello Edgar,

I'd be also interesed in a way to do this.

Currently keycloak doesn't provide a mechanism to register additional rest endpoints, however one could probably introduce a way to do so.
`org.keycloak.services.resources.KeycloakApplication.KeycloakApplication(ServletContext, Dispatcher) ` seems to be the place where the major JAX-RS Resources are registered.

I think this could be extended with an SPI to easily add custom Resources. This resources could then use DI or manual Lookups to access the Keycloak infrastructure.

Cheers,
Thomas

Hi,

Since we use MSAD/LDAP as user store the user’s LDAP_ID in Keycloak is for us the unique ID of a user and not Keycloak’s internal user ID.

However it seems that it is not possible to retrieve users based on the LDAP_ID attribute using the Keycloak admin API?

There is:

GET /admin/realms/{realm}/users/{id}

but this uses the internal Keycloak user ID which we cannot use (if only because sometimes we wipe out the Keycloak database and re-import all users from MSAD/LDAP)

and:

GET /admin/realms/{realm}/users

only allows searching on a very limited number of standard user attributes


How should we go about solving this? Does it make sense to create a feature request in JIRA to extend the /users API endpoint to allow searching on arbitrary user attributes for example? Or is it feasible to add our own endpoint to Keycloak’s REST API perhaps?

cheers
