The provisioning sections below contain in the example the parameters you may use to configure PKCE.

Provision a provider
--------------------

Depending on your use case, you can choose different ways to setup one or multiple OIDC identity providers.

Using MicroProfile Config has the advantage of being consistent and does not require additional calls to the API.
It can only configure one provider though, yet you can mix with other provider definitions via API.

Using the REST API has the advantage of provisioning multiple, different OIDC providers.
Depending on your use case, it has the drawback of needing additional API calls.

If you only need one single provider in your installation and it is using OIDC, use the MPCONFIG option, as it requires
fewer extra steps and allows you to keep more configuration in a single source.

Provision via REST API
