Hello Community, I have a couple of questions. 1) I tried log in with my ID in the issues tab… The system is refusing the access… Any idea why? 2) for the Smart on FHIR implementation, should one go ahead with the HAPI-FHIR library or concentrate on the Open Web Application implemented in the documentation? 3) Can someone throw more light on the Keycloak usage… Since the authentification is done through OAuth2?
Hello I think I can respond to your first question. If you want to acces the issues you have to send a special request. This is to avoid spam. You should look for the Jira registration link and submit a request there.
Hello @djibrillamohamed, In addition to @bejanut.
We already have SMART-on-FHIR module for it. Please check this out.
Yes, you are right. We are using Keycloak as an Authentication Server. check out the docs. Moreover, we also need to implement some more feature to keycloak, so we created GitHub - openmrs/openmrs-contrib-keycloak-smart-auth and GitHub - openmrs/openmrs-contrib-keycloak-auth: A plugin for Keycloak to authenticate users against the OpenMRS data store.
I hope this will be helpful.If you have more doubts, please create a new topic, as this topic is for introduction purpose only. 
Thanks @bejanut
Thanks @theanandankit
