## About the changes Refactor the main nav, with the following goals: * Communicate the value of each section vs the format (ex: “Understanding Unleash” vs “Topic Guides”) * Make space for the Feature Flag tutorials section that we’re starting to build * Scope updates to navigation and pages that need updates based on new URLs & organization * Update URLs to follow the new hierarchy without breaking links (adding redirects & editing internal links between pages as needed) ### Important files sidebar.js docusaurus.config.js ## Discussion points * Redirects can't be tested out of prod, which is a bummer :/ * Some URLs have been preserved untouched while we monitor for potential negative SEO impact of client-side redirects * It's a large PR (sorry). Nav changes and file movements impacted lots of files. --------- Co-authored-by: Thomas Heartman <thomas@getunleash.ai>

title: Service Accounts
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
:::info Availability
|
|
|
|
Service accounts is an enterprise feature available from Unleash 4.21 onwards.
|
|
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
Service accounts are accounts that act as normal Unleash users and that respect the same set of permissions, but that don't represent real users. These accounts do not have a password and cannot log in to the Unleash UI. Instead, they are intended to be used to access the Unleash API programmatically, providing integrations an identity.

|
|
|
|
Use service accounts to:
|
|
|
|
- Provide a user-like identity to an integration or automation and manage it within Unleash
|
|
- Give access to the Unleash API without giving access to the Unleash UI
|
|
- Provide more fine-grained permissions than an admin token provides
|
|
|
|
In order to create a service account, you can follow the [how to create service accounts](../how-to/how-to-create-service-accounts.mdx) guide.
|
|
|
|
## Service account tokens
|
|
|
|
Service account tokens allow service accounts to use the Admin API as themselves with their own set of permissions, rather than using an admin token. See [_how to use the Admin API_](../how-to/how-to-use-the-admin-api.md) for more information.
|
|
|
|
These tokens act just like [personal access tokens](./api-tokens-and-client-keys.mdx#personal-access-tokens) for the service accounts, except that they are managed by Unleash admins.
|
|
|
|
When using a service account token to modify resources, the event log will display the service account name for that operation.
|
|
|
|
Service account tokens can be managed by editing the respective service account:
