There are multiple ways to authenticate in OpenShift.

• htpasswd OAuth Identity Provider
• kubeadmin
• SSO keycloak
  • Install Red Hat Single Sign On (SSO) Operator on the command line
  • Install Red Hat Single Sign On (SSO) Operator using the console (this article)

Since installing the Operator is typically a one time task, I find it much easier to use the console instead of the command line. In the OpenShift console, go to Home > Projects > Create Project.

Give the project a name, such as sso.

Go to Operators > Operator Hub and select the Red Hat Single Sign On (SSO) Operator.

Select Install.

I typically just go with all the defaults here except that I select the project I created, "sso" in this example.

And if all goes according to plan, something like this should be displayed.

Next you will setup keycloak resource for Red Hat Single Sign On (SSO).
