ClientAuthenticator (Keycloak Server Private SPI 21.0.2 API)

All Superinterfaces:

Provider
```
public interface ClientAuthenticator
extends Provider
```
This interface is for users that want to add custom client authenticators to an authentication flow. You must implement this interface as well as a ClientAuthenticatorFactory. This interface is for verifying client credentials from request. On the adapter side, you must also implement org.keycloak.adapters.authentication.ClientCredentialsProvider , which is supposed to add the client credentials to the request, which will ClientAuthenticator verify on server side
