…s that were missing
The client needs redirect URIs for the landing and instance hosts only, not for
all four of the installation's hostnames - the REST service host and the
`*.webview.instance.` wildcard take no part in the browser redirect flow.
Two settings that were previously shown as `+`, and therefore never actually
described, are required:
Valid post logout redirect URIs https://<landing-host>/
https://<landing-host>/*
Web origins https://<landing-host>
https://instance.<landing-host>
The post-logout list needs both the bare `/` and the `/*` form. Every value
carries the https:// scheme.
The previous text went further than being incomplete: it warned "All four, not
two" and told readers that listing only the landing and instance hosts was a
mistake that would break webviews. That is the correct configuration, so the
warning would have led people to add entries they do not need. Replaced with a
note saying the other two hosts are deliberately absent, since the next person
to see two entries where four hostnames exist will otherwise assume it is a bug.
Four hostnames remains right for DNS and certificates. Only the client differs.

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe documentation updates align Keycloak configuration guidance across installation prerequisites and access control. They specify landing and instance hosts for redirect URIs and web origins, landing-host post-logout redirects, and exclude service and webview hosts from the client. ChangesKeycloak client guidance
Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The documentation update is mergeable with owner follow-up: troubleshooting may omit required post-logout URI checks, and one installation instruction contains a broken sentence fragment.

Remove the orphaned sentence fragment.
The Keycloak rewrite leaves catches it. on Line [75] without a subject or verb context. Delete the fragment or restore the sentence it completed.

Include post-logout checks in the troubleshooting step.
This bullet checks valid redirect URIs and web origins, but it does not check the required post-logout redirect URIs. Add the landing-host values documented above: https://<landing-host>/ and https://<landing-host>/*.

) The client needs redirect URIs for the landing and instance hosts only. The two settings the guide showed as a bare `+`, and therefore never described, are required: Valid post logout redirect URIs https://<landing-host>/ https://<landing-host>/* Web origins https://<landing-host> https://instance.<landing-host> The post-logout list needs both the bare `/` and the `/*` form. Every value carries the https:// scheme, and the web origins carry no path suffix. Also replaces the pre-restructure hostnames throughout: the worked examples were still `test1.theia-test.artemis.cit.tum.de` and `theia.artemis.cit.tum.de`, and now use test1's and tum-production's real landing hosts.

The admin guide told readers to put all four of an installation's hostnames in the client's valid redirect URIs. Only two belong there: the landing host and the instance host.
It also showed
Valid post-logout redirect URIsandWeb originsas a bare+, so neither was ever actually described - and both are required.What the client actually needs
Every value carries the
https://scheme. The post-logout list needs both the bare/and the/*form. The web origins carry no path suffix.The old text was actively misleading
It did not merely omit these. It carried a warning headed "All four, not two" telling readers that listing only the landing and instance hosts was a common mistake that would break webviews days later. That is the correct configuration, so anyone following the warning would have added entries they do not need.
Replaced with a note explaining that the service and webview hosts are deliberately absent - because the next person to see two entries where the installation has four hostnames will otherwise assume it is a bug and "fix" it.
Four hostnames is still right for DNS and for certificates. Only the Keycloak client differs, and the note says so explicitly with a link across.
