Is there a way to create user with oauth2 authentication via API?

Wekan / General · March 10, 2020 at 8:26am

I need to create users via API so they can be assigned tasks before they ever log into Wekan, but we're using oauth2 authentication (Keycloak). API methods here (https://github.com/wekan/wekan/wiki/REST-API) require password, but i can't provide it.

Authentication method is at Users collection/table: https://github.com/wekan/wekan/blob/master/models/users.js#L277 so you can make it editable like with REST API parameter like action here, similar for authenticationMethod https://github.com/wekan/wekan/blob/master/models/users.js#L1216 and similarly when adding a new user, by adding parameter of authenticationMethod https://github.com/wekan/wekan/blob/master/models/users.js#L1397 as pull request.

    @xet7 thanks for the info! If I call /api/users/id - i can see there are a lot of data associated with the user like password.bcrypt, email.verificationTokens, oidc. If i just pass authenticationMethod: oauth2 - will Wekan be able to figure out all these parameters later, or i have to provide them in some way?
