Hello

My customers asked me to see if it's possible for to build a Keycloak module so they can authenticate using my service.

Do you have any documentation or code examples on how to create a custom Keycloak module. In order to have Keycloak authenticate to my service instead of authenticating with services like Google or Facebook or Github.

thanks

Hello, 

keycloak allows developers to extend the server by adding custom authenticators and modules through extensions. 

Please have a look at this technical documentation dedicated to developers

Hello again, 

Here some useful solutions, you can look at their git code to have an idea about the module's structure.

Looks like you got some good answers .. but the obvious one that was not mentioned is if you made your service support OpenID Connect or SAML then all you would have to do is connect it with Keycloak and it would not require any changes.
