This guide is a part of the [NetBird Self-hosting Guide](/getting-started/self-hosting) and explains how to integrate
**self-hosted** NetBird with [Keycloak](https://www.keycloak.org/).
Keycloak is an open source software product to allow single sign-on with Identity and Access Management aimed at modern applications and services.
:::tip managed idp
If you prefer not to self-host an Identity and Access Management solution, then you could use a managed alternative like
[Auth0](/integrations/identity-providers/self-hosted/using-netbird-with-auth0).
:::
The following guide is an adapted version of the original
[Keycloak on Docker](https://www.keycloak.org/getting-started/getting-started-docker) guide from the official website.
### Expected Result
After completing this guide, you can log in to your self-hosted NetBird Dashboard and add your machines
to your network using the [Interactive SSO Login feature](/getting-started/installation#running-netbird-with-sso-login)
over Keycloak.

### Step 1: Check your Keycloak Instance
For this guide, you need a fully configured Keycloak instance running with SSL.
We assume that your Keycloak instance is available at **`https://YOUR-KEYCLOAK-HOST-AND_PORT`**.
Feel free to change the port if you have configured Keycloak with a different one.
Most of the OIDC software requires SSL for production use.
We encourage you to comply with this requirement to make the world more secure 😊.
### Step 2: Create a realm
To create a realm you need to:
- Open the Keycloak Admin Console
- Hover the mouse over the dropdown in the top-left corner where it says `Master`, then click on `Create Realm`
- Fill in the form with the following values:
- Realm name: `netbird`
- Click `Create`
-

### Step 3: Create a user
In this step we will create a NetBird administrator user.
- Open the Keycloak Admin Console
- Make sure, that the selected realm is `Netbird`
- Click `Users` (left-hand menu)
- Click `Create new user`
- Fill in the form with the following values:
- Username: `netbird`
- Click `Create`
![](/img/integrations/identity-providers/self-hosted/keycloak-create-user.png)
The user will need an initial password set to be able to log in. To do this:
- Click `Credentials` tab
- Click `Set password` button
- Fill in the password form with a password
- Set the `Temporary` field to `Off` to prevent having to update password on first login
- Click `Save`

### Step 4: Create a NetBird client
In this step we will create NetBird application client and register with the Keycloak instance.
- Open the Keycloak Admin Console
- Make sure, that the selected realm is `Netbird`
- Click `Clients`
- Click `Create client` button
- Fill in the form with the following values and click Next:
- Client Type: `OpenID Connect`
- Client ID: `netbird-client`
- Your newly client `netbird-client` will be used later to set `NETBIRD_AUTH_CLIENT_ID` in the `setup.env`
![](/img/integrations/identity-providers/self-hosted/keycloak-create-client.png)
- Check the checkboxes as on the screenshot below and click Save

### Step 5: Adjust NetBird client access settings
In this step we will configure NetBird application client access with the NetBird URLs.
- Open the Keycloak Admin Console
- Make sure, that the selected realm is `Netbird`
- Click `Clients`
- Choose `netbird-client` from the list
- Go to `Access Settings` section
- Fill in the fields with the following values:
- Root URL: `https://YOUR DOMAIN/` (this is the NetBird Dashboard root URL)
- Valid redirect URIs: `https://YOUR DOMAIN/*`
- Valid post logout redirect URIs: `https://YOUR DOMAIN/*`
- Web origins: `+`
- Click `Save`

### Step 6: Create a NetBird client scope
In this step, we will create and configure the NetBird client audience for Keycloak to add it to the generated JWT tokens.
- Open the Keycloak Admin Console
- Make sure, that the selected realm is `Netbird`
- Click `Client scopes` (left-hand menu)
- Click `Create client scope` button
- Fill in the form with the following values:
- Name: `api`
- Type: `Default`
- Protocol: `OpenID Connect`
- Click `Save`
![](/img/integrations/identity-providers/self-hosted/keycloak-create-client-scope.png)
- While in the newly created Client Scope, switch to the `Mappers` tab
- Click `Configure a new mapper`
- Choose the `Audience` mapping
![](/img/integrations/identity-providers/self-hosted/keycloak-configure-audience-mapper.png)
- Fill in the form with the following values:
- Name: `Audience for NetBird Management API`
- Included Client Audience: `netbird-client`
- Add to access token: `On`
- Click `Save`
![](/img/integrations/identity-providers/self-hosted/keycloak-configure-audience-mapper-2.png)
### Step 7: Add client scope to NetBird client
- Open the Keycloak Admin Console
- Make sure, that the selected realm is `Netbird`
- Click `Clients`
- Choose `netbird-client` from the list
- Switch to `Client scopes` tab
- Click `Add client scope` button
- Choose `api`
- CLick `Add` choosing `Default`
- The value `netbird-client` will be used as audience

### Step 8: Continue with the self-hosting guide
Your authority OIDC configuration will be available under:
```
https://<YOUR-KEYCLOAK-HOST-AND-PORT>/realms/netbird/.well-known/openid-configuration
```
:::caution
Double-check if the endpoint returns a JSON response by calling it from your browser.
:::
- Set properties in the `setup.env` file:
- NETBIRD_AUTH_OIDC_CONFIGURATION_ENDPOINT=`https://<YOUR-KEYCLOAK-HOST-AND-PORT>/realms/netbird/.well-known/openid-configuration`.
- NETBIRD_AUTH_CLIENT_ID=`netbird-client`
- NETBIRD_AUTH_AUDIENCE=`netbird-client`
- NETBIRD_AUTH_DEVICE_AUTH_CLIENT_ID=`netbird-client`. Optional,
it enables the [Interactive SSO Login feature](/getting-started/installation#running-netbird-with-sso-login) (Oauth 2.0 Device Authorization Flow)
- You can now continue with the [NetBird Self-hosting Guide](/getting-started/self-hosting#step-3-configure-identity-provider).
:::note
Make sure that your Keycloak instance use HTTPS. Otherwise, the setup won't work.
