+ <title>Admin Access Control</title>
+ <para>
+ Access to The Admin Console and REST endpoints can be controlled by mapping roles to users in the <literal>keycloak-admin</literal> realm.
+ It's possible to create multiple super users as well as users that have only access to certain operations in specific realms.
+ </para>
+ <section>
+ <title>Global Roles</title>
+ <para>
+ There are two realm roles in the <literal>keycloak-admin</literal> realm. These are:
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem>
+ <literal>admin</literal> - This is the super-user role and grants permissions to all operations on all realms
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <literal>create-realm</literal> - This grants the user permission to create new realms. A user that creates a realm is granted all permissions to the newly created realm.
+ </listitem>
+ </itemizedlist>
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ To add these roles to a user select the <literal>keycloak-admin</literal> realm, then click on <literal>Users</literal>.
+ Find the user you want to grant permissions to, open the user and click on <literal>Role Mappings</literal>. Under
+ <literal>Realm Roles</literal> assign any of the above roles to the user by selecting it and clicking on the right-arrow.
+ </para>
+ </section>
+
+ <section>
+ <title>Realm Specific Roles</title>
+ <para>
+ Each realm in Keycloak is represented by an application in the <literal>keycloak-admin</literal> realm. The name of the application
+ is <literal><realm name>-realm</literal>. This allows assigning access to users for individual realms. The
+ roles available are:
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem>
+ <literal>view-realm</literal> - View the realm configuration
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <literal>view-users</literal> - View users (including details for specific user) in the realm
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <literal>view-applications</literal> - View applications in the realm
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <literal>view-clients</literal> - View clients in the realm
+ </listitem>
+
+ <listitem>
+ <literal>manage-realm</literal> - Modify the realm configuration (and delete the realm)
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <literal>manage-users</literal> - Create, modify and delete users in the realm
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <literal>manage-applications</literal> - Create, modify and delete applications in the realm
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <literal>manage-clients</literal> - Create, modify and delete clients in the realm
+ </listitem>
+ </itemizedlist>
+ Manage roles includes permissions to view (for example a user with manage-realm role can also view the realm configuration).
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ To add these roles to a user select the <literal>keycloak-admin</literal> realm, then click on <literal>Users</literal>.
+ Find the user you want to grant permissions to, open the user and click on <literal>Role Mappings</literal>. Under
+ <literal>Application Roles</literal> select the application that represents the realm you're adding permissions to
+ (<literal><realm name>-realm</literal>), then assign any of the above roles to the user by selecting it and clicking on the right-arrow.
