JWT from Keycloak

How do I get Keycloak to respond with a JWT for an authenticated user? The JWT should correspond to the access control set-up in Keycloak. For example, a manager has edit/delete access to some sort of records whereas a developer has only read access for the same set of records.

Keycloak implements the standard OpenID Connect endpoints: Securing Applications and Services Guide
See “Token Endpoint” in the docs.

If you are using the authorization code flow, you can use this endpoint to retrieve a token. You can also supply credentials here if you are using direct grant.
