quarkus.security.users.embedded.plain-text=true
quarkus.security.users.embedded.users.alice=alice
quarkus.security.users.embedded.users.bob=bob
quarkus.security.users.embedded.roles.alice=admin
quarkus.security.users.embedded.roles.bob=userIn this configuration the credentials for users alice and bob are configured: alice has a password alice and an admin role, bob has a password bob and a user role.
