Description

Expected Behavior

The Spring Security 7.0+ documentation should include all details from the Spring Authorization Server 1.5 documentation it replaces.

Current Behavior

The Spring Security 7.0 documentation does not include the How-to guides from the Spring Authorization Server documentation.

Context

I was looking for an up-to-date version of the "Implement Multitenancy" guide and could not find it anywhere. For now, I'll try to follow the old guide.

Research direction

Start by comparing the Spring Authorization Server 1.5 reference how-to.html and its linked guides, especially the Implement Multitenancy guide, with the Spring Security 7.0 reference documentation. Done means the missing how-to content is available in the replacement documentation, including an up-to-date multitenancy guide.
