Joomla Keycloak User Sync | User Management Extension

Keycloak User Sync | User Management

miniOrange Keycloak User Sync for Joomla helps you to sync and provision the Joomla user information in Keycloak and vice versa. This extension contains the functionality to Create, Read, Update, Delete, Deactivate the users and Synchronize attributes between Keycloak and Joomla. This solution is intended to automate the provisioning process while also maintaining a single system to manage permissions and groups.

What is User Sync

User sync refers to the process of synchronizing user data (such as user profiles, access permissions, and authentication credentials) between different applications or systems. In our case the user data is synchronized between Joomla and Keycloak. The goal of user sync is to ensure that user data is consistent and up-to-date across Joomla and Keycloak user directories, which reduces the additional overhead or separately maintaining records and reduces the risk of errors.

Benefits of Keycloak User Sync

The Keycloak User Sync for Joomla provides the following

Simplified User Management: By syncing user data between Joomla and Keycloak, you can reduce the need for manual data entry and maintenance, which can save time and reduce errors.
Enhances User Experience: The Keycloak User Sync extension enables users to access their Keycloak and Joomla resources using a single set of credentials, providing a seamless and streamlined user experience.
