Signals Image Artist: Accessing the Keycloak Admin Console

Many Keycloak settings can be managed via the SImA UI directly, but others are only accessible via the Keycloak admin console.

To enable the Keycloak admin console the KEYCLOAK_USER and KEYCLOAK_PASSWORD environment variables must be set in the following ways:

SImA 1.1 or lower:

Uncomment the following two lines in the default.env file (found in the SImA installation directory):

KEYCLOAK_USER=kcadmin
KEYCLOAK_PASSWORD=<password>

Set the password as required.

SImA 1.2:

Add the following two lines to the custom.env file (found in the SImA installation directory):

KEYCLOAK_USER=kcadmin
KEYCLOAK_PASSWORD=<password>

Set the password as required.

In both cases, the SImA stack must be redeployed for the changes to take effect.

Once the SImA stack has been deployed, the Keycloak admin console will be accessible via https://<sima_server>/auth/. Log in with the KEYCLOAK_USER and KEYCLOAK_PASSWORD

values. 

SImA 1.3:

The Keycloak admin console is accessible via https://<sima-ip-or-domain-name>/admin. The Username is "kcadmin" and the password is now stored in a docker secret:  .secrets/kcadmin_password.
