Hello guys,

We’ve recently upgraded to Keycloak 9.0.0 in order to use the Cookie Token Store in the Spring Boot Adapter.

For the moment, we only set the parameter “keycloak.token-store=COOKIE” for the adapter.

We were looking for some documentation about how to use it correctly.

We have two use cases:

1. Users authentication to our webapp (using Keycloak of course) in a browser

2. Users authentication to our REST API (using Keycloak of course) via HTTP requests

For 1), we would like to use a standard authentication flow (access\_token, refresh\_token in HTTP session).

For 2), we would like to use the “Token Store Cookie mode” and exchange the authentication information via the “KEYCLOAK\_ADAPTER\_STATE” cookie.

We read the Spring Boot Keycloak filters and other Spring Boot adapter classes just to know how the KEYCLOAK\_ADAPTER\_STATE is managed, but we cannot find how to get this cookie :’(

Could you please give us some example, documentation,…?

Thanks a lot for your help!
