|

The bulk of your administrative tasks will be done through the {project_name} Admin Console.
|
||||
You can go to the console url directly at http://localhost:8080/auth/admin/

|
||||
|

Enter the username and password you created on the Welcome Page or the `add-user-keycloak` script in the bin directory.
|
||||
This will bring you to the {project_name} Admin Console.

.Admin Console

image:{project_images}/admin-console.png[]
|
||||
|
||||
The left drop down menu allows you to pick a realm you want to manage or to create a new one. The right drop down menu allows you to view your user account or logout.
|
||||
If you are curious about a certain feature, button, or field within the Admin Console, simply hover your mouse
|
||||
over any question mark `?` icon. This will pop up tooltip text to describe the area of the console you are interested in.
|
||||
The image above shows the tooltip in action.
|
||||
Once you have an administrative account for the Admin Console, you can configure realms. A realm is a space where you manage objects, including users, applications, roles, and groups. A user belongs to and logs into a realm. One {project_name} deployment can define, store, and manage as many realms as there is space for in the database.

= The Master Realm
|
||||
When you boot {project_name} for the first time {project_name} creates a
|
||||
pre-defined realm for you. This initial realm is the _master_ realm. It is the
|
||||
highest level in the hierarchy of realms. Admin accounts in this realm have
|
||||
permissions to view and manage any other realm created on the server instance.
|
||||
When you define your initial admin account, you create an account in the
|
||||
_master_ realm. Your initial login to the admin console will also be via the
|
||||
_master_ realm.
|
||||
= The master realm
|
||||
In the Admin Console, two types of realms exist:
|
||||
|
||||
We recommend that you do not use the _master_ realm to manage the users
|
||||
and applications in your organization. Reserve use of the _master_ realm for
|
||||
_super_ admins to create and manage the realms in your system. Following this
|
||||
security model helps prevent accidental changes and follows the tradition
|
||||
* `Master realm` - This realm was created for you when you first started {project_name}. It contains the administrator account you created at the first login. Use the _master_ realm only to create and manage the realms in your system.
|
||||
|
||||
* `Other realms` - These realms are created by the administrator in the master realm. In these realms, administrators manage the users in your organization and the applications they need. The applications are owned by the users.

.Realms and applications

image:../../../getting_started/images/master_realm.png[Realms and applications]
|

|

Realms are isolated from one another and can only manage and authenticate the users that they control. Following this security model helps prevent accidental changes and follows the tradition
|
||||
of permitting user accounts access to only those privileges and powers necessary
|
||||
for the successful completion of their current task.
|
||||
|
||||
It is possible to disable the _master_ realm and define admin accounts within
|
||||
each individual new realm you create. Each realm has its own dedicated Admin
|
||||
Console that you can log into with local accounts. This guide talks more about

this in the <<_per_realm_admin_permissions, Dedicated Realm Admin Consoles>>

You create a realm to provide a management space where you can create users and give them permissions to use applications. At first login, you are typically in the _master_ realm, the top-level realm from which you create other realms.
|

|

When deciding what realms you need, consider the kind of isolation you want to have for your users and applications. For example, you might create a realm for the employees of your company and a separate realm for your customers.

Your employees would log into the employee realm and only be able to visit internal company applications. Customers would log into the customer
