Nightly release

Do not use nightly releases in production environments.

Migration is not supported for nightly releases. Always use an empty database, or a copy of the database, when deploying a nightly release. Nightly releases may also contain regressions or features that are not ready for usage.

We provide a nightly release of Keycloak that serves of a preview of what is coming in the next release. The aim is to get early feedback from the community on new features, on bug fixes, or other enhancements. We also encourage extension developers to continuously test their extensions with the nightly release.

The nightly release is built every night from main branches, and will overwrite the previous nightly release.
