Use a different user for Jaspersoft Keycloak Super Admin

Hi,

Does anyone know whether it’s possible to use any created cloud user as the Keycloak Super Admin? For example, currently it is advised to set the user as “ifsadmin” via the ifscloud-values yaml file, could I potentially create a user in Cloud first like “ReportAdmin” and use that as the admin?

It appears even if you assign a user the Administrator or Super user roles within Jaspersoft, it still does not give them the full permissions (like the ‘Manage' menu) to upload & manage reports. Only the keycloak super user admin seems to have those permissions.

 

Referring to the cloud-values paramters here in 24R1 & R2: 

https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/24r2/070_remote_deploy/010_installing_fresh_system/200_installing_ifs_cloud/035_ifs_cloud_ifsinstaller/030_installation_parameters/#parameters_for_ifsmaintenixreportserver

Thanks.

Yes, it is technically possible to use a different user (e.g., ReportAdmin) as the Keycloak Super Admin in IFS Cloud but it requires correctly configuring the user and updating your deployment configuration accordingly.

Simply assigning a user as an Administrator inside the Jaspersoft UI or within IFS roles is not sufficient only the Keycloak-configured super admin gets access to the full admin console. This is because Jaspersoft uses the Keycloak admin credentials at install-time to bootstrap roles and permissions.
