prerequisites

1. **aws account**: you need an active aws account.
2. **keycloak server**: you should have a running keycloak server instance.
3. **aws cli**: installed and configured to interact with your aws services.

steps overview

1. **configure keycloak as a saml idp**.
2. **create an aws cognito user pool**.
3. **set up saml identity provider in aws cognito**.
4. **test the integration**.

step 1: configure keycloak as a saml idp

1. **log in to keycloak admin console**.

2. **create a new realm** (if you don’t have one):
- click on the "add realm" button.
- give it a name and save.

- navigate to "clients" "create".
- enter a client id (e.g., `aws-cognito`).
- set the client protocol to `saml`.
