community.general.keycloak_client_rolemapping module – Allows administration of Keycloak client_rolemapping with the Keycloak API

Note

This module is part of the community.general collection (version 7.5.2).

You might already have this collection installed if you are using the ansible package. It is not included in ansible-core. To check whether it is installed, run ansible-galaxy collection list.

To install it, use: ansible-galaxy collection install community.general.

To use it in a playbook, specify: community.general.keycloak_client_rolemapping.

New in community.general 3.5.0

Synopsis

  • This module allows you to add, remove or modify Keycloak client_rolemapping with the Keycloak REST API. It requires access to the REST API via OpenID Connect; the user connecting and the client being used must have the requisite access rights. In a default Keycloak installation, admin-cli and an admin user would work, as would a separate client definition with the scope tailored to your needs and a user having the expected roles.

  • The names of module options are snake_cased versions of the camelCase ones found in the Keycloak API and its documentation at https://www.keycloak.org/docs-api/8.0/rest-api/index.html.

  • Attributes are multi-valued in the Keycloak API. All attributes are lists of individual values and will be returned that way by this module. You may pass single values for attributes when calling the module, and this will be translated into a list suitable for the API.

  • When updating a client_rolemapping, where possible provide the role ID to the module. This removes a lookup to the API to translate the name into the role ID.

Parameters

Parameter

Comments

auth_client_id

string

OpenID Connect client_id to authenticate to the API with.

Default: "admin-cli"

auth_client_secret

string

Client Secret to use in conjunction with auth_client_id (if required).

auth_keycloak_url

aliases: url

string / required

URL to the Keycloak instance.

auth_password

aliases: password

string

Password to authenticate for API access with.

auth_realm

string

Keycloak realm name to authenticate to for API access.

auth_username

aliases: username

string

Username to authenticate for API access with.

cid

string

Id of the client to be mapped.

This parameter is not required for updating or deleting the rolemapping but providing it will reduce the number of API calls required.

client_id

string

Name of the client to be mapped (different than cid).

This parameter is required (can be replaced by cid for less API call).

connection_timeout

integer

added in community.general 4.5.0

Controls the HTTP connections timeout period (in seconds) to Keycloak API.

Default: 10

gid

string

Id of the group to be mapped.

This parameter is not required for updating or deleting the rolemapping but providing it will reduce the number of API calls required.

group_name

string

Name of the group to be mapped.

This parameter is required (can be replaced by gid for less API call).

http_agent

string

added in community.general 5.4.0

Configures the HTTP User-Agent header.

Default: "Ansible"

parents

list / elements=dictionary

added in community.general 7.1.0

List of parent groups for the group to handle sorted top to bottom.

Set this if your group is a subgroup and you do not provide the GID in gid.

id

string

Identify parent by ID.

Needs less API calls than using parents[].name.

A deep parent chain can be started at any point when first given parent is given as ID.

Note that in principle both ID and name can be specified at the same time but current implementation only always use just one of them, with ID being preferred.

name

string

Identify parent by name.

Needs more internal API calls than using parents[].id to map names to ID’s under the hood.

When giving a parent chain with only names it must be complete up to the top.

Note that in principle both ID and name can be specified at the same time but current implementation only always use just one of them, with ID being preferred.

realm

string

They Keycloak realm under which this role_representation resides.

Default: "master"

roles

list / elements=dictionary

Roles to be mapped to the group.

id

string

The unique identifier for this role_representation.

This parameter is not required for updating or deleting a role_representation but providing it will reduce the number of API calls required.

name

string

Name of the role_representation.

This parameter is required only when creating or updating the role_representation.

state

string

State of the client_rolemapping.

On present, the client_rolemapping will be created if it does not yet exist, or updated with the parameters you provide.

On absent, the client_rolemapping will be removed if it exists.

Choices:

  • "present" ← (default)

  • "absent"

token

string

added in community.general 3.0.0
