To update a username in Keycloak using its API, follow these steps:
/users/{id}
endpoint, where {id}
is the ID of the user whose username you want to update.username
field.Authorization
header to Bearer {access_token}
, where {access_token}
is the token obtained in step 1.Here's an example of how to update a user's username using the Keycloak API in Python:
import requests
import json
# obtain access token
url = "http://localhost:8080/auth/realms/myrealm/protocol/openid-connect/token"
payload = {
"grant_type": "client_credentials",
"client_id": "myclient",
"client_secret": "mysecret"
}
response = requests.post(url, data=payload)
access_token = response.json().get("access_token")
# update username
user_id = "12345-67890" # the ID of the user to update
username = "newusername" # the new username
url = f"http://localhost:8080/auth/admin/realms/myrealm/users/{user_id}"
payload = {
"username": username
}
headers = {
"Authorization": f"Bearer {access_token}",
"Content-Type": "application/json"
}
response = requests.put(url, data=json.dumps(payload), headers=headers)
response.raise_for_status()
Note that the Content-Type
header must be set to application/json
for the request body to be recognized as JSON. Additionally, the user making the API request must have the necessary permissions to update users in Keycloak.
