We have support for identity brokering, but not sure if that helps with
your usecase. As if I understand correctly, you have token for B and you
want to access API protected by A with the B-token, right?
If you don't want to use multitenancy for some reason, I think you may
have to validate token by yourself and your application side instead of
using our adapters. As even if A and B use the same publicKey for token
verification, the issuer in the B-Token will be different though, so our
adapter (which verifies the issuer) will fail.
Also you can implement your own directGrant authenticator in the
Keycloak-A, which will allow you to authenticate with the b-token (sent
to it in some parameter) and then return you back the a-token, which you
can then validate. Defacto exchange b-token for a-token. See
Authentication SPI docs for more details.
