Integrating Keycloak with Grafana allows you to use Keycloak’s robust authentication and authorization mechanisms, enabling single sign-on (SSO) and centralized user management for your Grafana dashboards.

This guide will walk you through the steps to integrate Keycloak as an authorization server with Grafana, ensuring secure and streamlined access to your monitoring dashboards.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have the following:

• Keycloak is installed and running. This guide assumes you have administrative access to the Keycloak server.
• Grafana is installed and running. You should have administrative access to the Grafana instance.
