Keycloak has added experimental support for AuthZEN Authorization APIs

Hi all. I have recently added support for the AuthZEN Authorization Evaluation and Evaluations APIs to the Keycloak nightly build. The feature is experimental and will be available from Keycloak 26.7.

The new APIs utilise Keycloak's existing authorization capabilities behind the scenes and allow Keycloak to act as a AuthZEN Policy Decision Point.

The following blog post provides some context about what AuthZEN is and why Keycloak has embraced these APIs: https://www.keycloak.org/2026/05/authzen-as-experimental-feature

Documentation is available on the nightly build of the site: https://www.keycloak.org/nightly/securing-apps/authzen-authorization

I have also implemented a playground scenario to help people try it out.

Feedback would be much appreciated, either here or on the AuthZEN GitHub discussion.
