Dyanmic authorization support #246

Closed youssefbennour closed 2 weeks ago

youssefbennour commented 2 weeks ago

I have a use case where I want to let admins in my organization create roles dynamically from my front-end application and map pre-defined application permissions to those roles. It seems this is not supported currently since, I'm not able to associate attributes with organization roles. 1 - Do you have any other workaround to implement this feature ? 2 - Are there any reason why, organization roles didn't include attributes (like client roles) ? At first, I was going to implement this cross-user multi-tenancy scenario by myself with keycloak (with those clients and groups hacks), after I found out about your extension I was so happy that I won't do that. Sadly now I'm afraid that if I don't have any workaround with this issue of dynamic authorization, I'll have to build something on my own.

A user with the organization roles manage-roles can do that.

I don't understand why attributes are related to an admin being able to create roles.

Keycloak 25 itself now has an organization feature, largely copied from this one. If you're building a new project, I'd suggest starting with that https://www.keycloak.org/docs/latest/server_admin/index.html#_managing_organizations_

Probably I didn't explain enough, I want end-users to be able to create roles and to choose which permissions they want to include in each role. So I wanted to use role attributes as permissions. But anyways I'll check keycloak organization feature.
