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. 
Hello everyone,
I am looking to work on some of the issues on jiira, however the one’s I am seeing appear to be already assigned or have others working on them.
Is there an administrator here who could direct me to any open tickets that are “ready for work”? I would also like to know how does one get assigned to one of these issues.
hi @petersalluta on Jira there are multiple filters on the top of any Issue you can check them out, for example, all the unassigned issue can be seen by:
thank you @nkumar. I checked out those filters but it seems those issues had persons already working on them when I read the comments section.
@petersalluta, if have confusion that someone is working on the unassigned issues, you can ask the issue reporter or designer in the comments.
