Hello,  
I’m looking for API documentation to assist in building a Keycloak client adapter. All I see in the API Documentation at [https://www.keycloak.org/documentation](https://www.keycloak.org/documentation) is the administration apis and the java docs.

Is my only option to find info about api’s outside of administration to dig through the java docs?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

[https://www.keycloak.org/docs/latest/securing\_apps/#what-are-client-adapters](https://www.keycloak.org/docs/latest/securing_apps/#what-are-client-adapters)

You can look in the Keycloak repo itself on Github for example code.

Thank you for your reply I’ll check out the example code. But that doesn’t exactly answer my question. So does that mean there is no API documentation on how I can interact with Keycloak as a client, outside of source code, rfc’s and openid specs?
