Describe the problem
I'm facing an issue using Keycloak and Active Directory with Netbird.
I connected Keycloak with Windows Active Directory and I manage to connect to Netbird.
And on the Peers page, I see this error : " Request failed with status code 401. Please refresh the page if the issue continues. invalid jwt"
When I connect to Netbird using an internal user (not imported from AD), it works perfectly.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Install Netbird and Keycloak in self-hosted mode
  2. Configure Keycloak to connect to LDAP
  3. Try to connect to user imported from LDAP

Expected behavior
See Peer information from the URL

Additional context
Difference between user :

  • Classic user in Keycloak :
{
    "id":"3f3ce19d-52cf-4579-b5b7-d499d6006e32",
    "createdTimestamp":1690813563692,
    "username":"user",
    "enabled":true,
    "totp":false,
    "emailVerified":false,
    "firstName":"user",
    "lastName":"user",
    "email":"user@mail.com",
    "attributes":{
        "wt_pending_invite":["false"],
        "wt_account_id":["cj3shulxxxx738xxxxg"]
    },
    "disableableCredentialTypes":[],
    "requiredActions":[],
    "notBefore":0,
    "access":{
        "manageGroupMembership":true,
        "view":true,
        "mapRoles":true,
        "impersonate":false,
        "manage":true
    }
}
  • User imported from AD :
{
    "id":"1cxxx9d7-f0xx-4fxx-bbxx-18749xxxxba7b",
    "createdTimestamp":1693477962721,
    "username":"UserAD",
    "enabled":true,
    "totp":false,
    "emailVerified":false,
    "firstName":"UserAD",
    "lastName":"Name",
    "email":"UserAD@mail.com",
    "federationLink":"738xx269-d0xx-49xx-xx09-4223xxxxa336",
    "attributes":{
        "LDAP_ENTRY_DN":["CN=UserAD,OU=Utilisateurs,OU=xxx,DC=xxx,DC=xxx"],
        "createTimestamp":["20190516124504.0Z"],
        "modifyTimestamp":["20230831104958.0Z"],
        "LDAP_ID":["xxx"]
    },
    "disableableCredentialTypes":[],
    "requiredActions":[],
    "notBefore":0,
    "access":{
        "manageGroupMembership":true,
        "view":true,
        "mapRoles":true,
        "impersonate":false,
        "manage":true
    }
}

After looking the code, you are using wt_account_id and wt_pending_invite. These two variables are not in user imported from LDAP...

The problem seems to come from this file : https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/blob/main/management/server/idp/keycloak.go
