Question

I’m trying to get this package to work for the last couple of hours. When my application is posting to http://127.0.0.1:8180/auth/realms/crydash/protocol/openid-connect/token i get the following: {“error”:“unauthorized_client”,“error_description”:“Client secret not provided in request”}. This is probably due to my client being a ‘confidential client’. My only goal with this package is to install it so that i can login into my backend whilst working on the Angular development server. This won’t be a problem when I deploy it on the api server (Wildfly) eventually.

Does anyone know how to get this to work with a client secret? I’ve been digging around but I’ve yet to found a solution for this.

@tw2as Not entirely sure. But if you look up the keycloak documentation for the javascript adapter you’ll find the following:

One important thing to note about using client-side applications is that the client has to be a public client as there is no secure way to store client credentials in a client-side application. This makes it very important to make sure the redirect URIs you have configured for the client are correct and as specific as possible.
