Abdennours answer is only for HTTP APIs. If you want to use REST API then you have to use Lambda Authorizer. Your Lambda Authorizer must do the validation against your keycloak server.

Besides Lambda, JWT is now available as built-in authorizer:

You can add custom authorizers to your API-Gateway. Basically you send a request to keycloak in order to get for example your JWT-Token. API-Gateway then has a custom authorizer (a lambda) which validates the token and returns an IAM policy.

See https://aws.amazon.com/de/blogs/compute/introducing-custom-authorizers-in-amazon-api-gateway/ for more information.
