Add a New User

This section describes how to add a new user when you are using the default configuration. You can configure Keycloak to connect to an existing user directory - such as an LDAP server - and manage users with your existing tools.

To add a user

  1. Change to the realm that was created by the Discover deployment tool. This is named discover by default, but may have another name if you modified the parameter ISOL_AUTH_SERVICE_REALM in config/base.env.
  2. In the Keycloak navigation menu, under Manage, click Users.

  3. Click Add User.

  4. Type the relevant user information, such as a username for the new user, and their e-mail address.

  5. Click Save.

    The user is created.

  6. Click the Credentials tab and set a password for the new user.

  7. Click the Role Mappings tab and assign the relevant roles to the user. For information about the roles that are used in Discover, see Roles.
