Create a user with the rest API.

[Paul Bleeker]

I am trying to create a user using the spring REST client. When I pass the user with "rep" key I get: 400 Bad Request: [Unrecognized field "rep" (class org.keycloak.representations.idm.UserRepresentation), not marked as ignorable]

Here is the code:

public String createUser2() throws UnsupportedEncodingException, JSONException {

    String adminToken = getAccessToken();

   

        System.out.println("token: " + adminToken);

HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();

headers.set("Content-Type", "application/json");

headers.set("Authorization", "Bearer " + adminToken);

UserRepresentation userRepresentation = new UserRepresentation();

userRepresentation.setFirstName("some");

userRepresentation.setLastName("user");

userRepresentation.setUsername("Some...@trilliant.com");

userRepresentation.setEmail("Some...@trilliant.com");

Gson gson = new Gson();

String jsonUser = gson.toJson(userRepresentation);

    MultiValueMap<String, String> map = new LinkedMultiValueMap<>();

map.add("rep", jsonUser);

        HttpEntity<MultiValueMap<String, String>> request = new HttpEntity<>(map, headers);

        

        String realm = "12xDemo";

        String uri = keycloakUsersUri.replace("$REALM", realm);

        System.out.println("URI: " + uri);

        

        String response = (new RestTemplate()).postForObject(uri, request, String.class);

        JSONObject obj = new JSONObject(response);

        return obj.toString();

    }

Forgot, here's the URI:

private String keycloakUsersUri =  "localhost:8080/auth/admin/realms/$REALM/users";
