Configure authentication for Gapwalk applications

To configure OAuth2 authentication for your Gapwalk application, you need to set up an identity provider (IdP) and integrate it with your application. This guide covers the steps for using Amazon Cognito or Keycloak as your IdP. With Amazon Cognito, you can update your application's configuration file with the Cognito user pool details. With Keycloak, you can control access to your application's APIs and resources based on the user's assigned roles.
