Do Keycloak Clients have a Client Secret?

Question

Does keycloak client id has a client secret? I tried to create a client in keycloak admin but I was not able to spot client secret.

Is it auto generated? Where can I get the secret?

Answer 1

KC > v22

Your client needs to have Client authentication enabled

KC < v22

Your client need to have the access-type set to confidential , then you will have a new tab credentials where you will see the client secret.
