从 postman 访问 keycloak API

Question

I have tried to access the keycloak API from the postman. but it is showing 400 bad request.

I was calling api in the below format.

http://{hostname}:8080/auth/realms/master/protocol/openid-connect/token?username=admin&password=admin&client_id=admin-cli&grant_type=password

In the headers I have set the content_type as application/x-www-form-urlencoded

I am getting the response as below.

{
    "error": "invalid_request",
    "error_description": "Missing form parameter: grant_type"
}

Can any one help me.Any help will be appreciated. thanks in advance

Answer 1

A bit late for this question, but you did ask about postman and not curl. So you have to put the options in x-www-form-urlencoded

Answer 2

You call API through POST client

URL - http://localhost:8080/auth/realms/Demo/protocol/openid-connect/token

So here in above url i am using Demo as my realm instead of master .

ContentType - "Content-Type":"application/x-www-form-urlencoded"

Params :

{
"client_secret" : "90ec9638-7647-4e65-ad20-b82df3341084",
"username" : "ankur",
"password" : "123456",
"grant_type" : "password",
"client_id": "app-client"
}

Set Header as below

Data Need to be passed as shown below

Answer 3

The URL you are using is to obtain the token.

The token request should be a POST call, the request you post is a GET request. Below a CURL example about how to request the access_token

curl -X POST \
   http://{hostname}:8080/auth/realms/{realm}/protocol/openid-connect/token \
   -H 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
   -d 'username=admin&password=admin&grant_type=password&client_id=admin-cli'

did I create a Postman collection to help us to get start with keycloak API. Anyone can save the follow json, and import on Postman:

        "key": "token",
        "value": ""
    }
],
"protocolProfileBehavior": {}}

And I created a pre-script to get the token and set on wich request, as you can see on the image below:

You should create the follow environment variables: KEYCLOAK_USER, KEYCLOAK_PASSWORD and KEYCLOAK_URL, where the url must be https://{your keycloak installation}/auth/

也可以使用 CURL 来获取信息

curl -L -X POST 'http://<serveraddress>/auth/realms/<realmname>/protocol/openid-connect/token' -H 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' --data-urlencode 'client_id=<clientid>' --data-urlencode 'grant_type=password' --data-urlencode 'client_secret=<clientsecret>' --data-urlencode 'scope=openid' --data-urlencode 'username=<username>' --data-urlencode 'password=<password>'
