I'm trying to set a user's attribute after they register in my custom Keycloak extension. My event listener implementation looks as follows:
@AutoService(EventListenerProviderFactory.class)
public class EventListener implements EventListenerProvider {
private final KeycloakSession session;
public EventListener(KeycloakSession session) {
this.session = session;
}
@Override
public void onEvent(Event event) {
if (event.getType() != EventType.REGISTER)
return;
RealmModel realm = session.realms().getRealm(event.getRealmId());
UserModel user = session.users().getUserById(realm, event.getUserId());
user.setSingleAttribute("hello", "world");
}
@Override
public void onEvent(AdminEvent event, boolean includeRepresentation) {
}
@Override
public void close() {
}
}
My extension is recognized by Keycloak and successfully triggers onEvent() when an event occurs (hence why I didn't include the factory class).
However, the attribute isn't added to the user. How do I actually persist the changes to the user?
While searching for a solution to the above, I came across this discussion of a very similar issue. Extending RegistrationUserCreation instead of EventListenerProvider and using the solution given by @dvlpphb did actually manage to solve my problem; however, the solution only worked when overriding the RegistrationUserCreation's validate() method, which is called every time the user attempts to register.
If anyone knows a way to set a user attribute without EventListenerProvider through RegistrationUserCreation's success() callback, that would also solve my issue.
Thank you!
