Important
To enable single sign-on (SSO) with Self-Hosted Deployment, the recommended practice is to establish a procedure to rotate the client secret of the application that you have created in the enterprise identity provider (IdP). For Microsoft Entra ID, the maximum secret lifetime is two years, so you must handle its expiration anyway.
- In the enterprise IdP, add a new secret to the client.
- In Keycloak, replace the secret in the IdP configuration, and then verify that SSO works.
- In the enterprise IdP, delete the previous client secret.
Note
This secret isn't stored in the solution key vault.
