keycloak connect backend systems with oauth2
I would like to secure our web services and would like to know if I have understand the concept and how to implement this in keycloak. We have 2 backend systems A and B and keycloak as oauth2 provider. System A consumes services on system B.
- I would like to let system A requests an access token from keycloack with client credentials flow, because this is an backend request only.
- System A sends the request to system B along with this access token
- System B checks the access token against keycloak
- System B sends actual service response if token check has passed or an appropriate failure message.
Is that a good approach and how can we implemnt this in keycloak?

You have three types of access types with keycloak
- public
- confidential
- bearer-only
More information can be found here
https://www.keycloak.org/docs/latest/server_admin/index.html
If Your System A is accessed by other client facing UI then implement System A and System B as bearer-only clients.
