Keycloak 26.8 supports SCIM and stateless multi-cluster deployments

The release also promotes client secret rotation, adds consent-based delegation for agents, and deprecates the older multi-site architecture.

Old multi-site versus new stateless Keycloak deployment.
Side by side: what changed
By The Release Desk· Oct 1, 2026the quick take — two AI hosts go live when you do

Keycloak 26.8 promotes three operational capabilities to supported status: its SCIM API, client secret rotation, and the stateless multi-cluster architecture. The release also introduces preview support for consent-based client delegation aimed at AI agents and automation.

What changed

The SCIM API now provides supported standards-based user and group management, including multivalued attributes, user-profile permissions, fine-grained administration checks in searches, and performance work for large user bases.

Multi-cluster v2 is also supported. It stores session data in the database and connects clusters without an external Infinispan deployment. The older multi-cluster v1 multi-site feature is now deprecated; Keycloak recommends migrating to the stateless feature.

Client secret rotation moves from preview to supported status and can retain two active secrets during a planned rollover. Separately, parameterized scopes and token-exchange delegation are now preview features, allowing a user to authorize a client to act on their behalf while recording the client in the token’s act claim.

Who it affects

Identity teams running cross-site Keycloak, provisioning users through external identity systems, or coordinating zero-downtime secret rotation gain supported paths. Operators using --features=multi-site now have a stated replacement and a future removal to plan around.

What to do

Before upgrading, review the 26.8 migration guide. Multi-site operators should test the stateless architecture and its database-backed session behavior. Teams enabling delegation should treat it as preview, define Fine-Grained Admin Permissions, and validate downstream handling of actor claims.
