# Service Accounts

## List Service Account Workspace Members

**GET** `/v1/organizations/workspaces/{workspace_id}/service_accounts`

**Requires an OAuth access token with the `org:admin` scope**, from `ant auth login --scope org:admin` or a workload identity federation rule; Admin API keys are not accepted. See [Manage WIF with the Admin API](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/manage-claude/wif-admin-api?sdk_languages=http).

List the service accounts that are members of a workspace.

Each entry includes the service account's `workspace_role`. Use `limit`
and the `next_page` cursor to paginate. Archived workspaces return 400;
use `GET /service_accounts/{id}/workspaces` to audit memberships of an
archived workspace. The implicit default-workspace membership is not
included in this list. Memberships of archived service accounts are
omitted from the results.

### Path parameters

- `workspace_id: string`

  ID of the workspace.

### Query parameters

- `limit: optional number`

  Number of results per page.

  default: 20, minimum: 1, maximum: 100

- `page: optional string`

  Opaque cursor from a previous response's `next_page`.

### Headers

- `"anthropic-version": optional string`

  The version of the Claude API you want to use.

  Read more about versioning and our version history [here](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/api/versioning?sdk_languages=http).

### Returns

- `data: array of ServiceAccountWorkspaceMember`

  - `type: "service_account_workspace_member"`

    default: service_account_workspace_member

  - `created_by_actor_id: string or null`

    Tagged ID (`user_...`/`svac_...`) of the actor who created this membership.

  - `implicit: boolean or null`

    True when this is the implicit default-workspace membership every service account has when no explicit membership exists. Implicit memberships have role `workspace_user` and cannot be removed.

  - `service_account_id: string`

    Tagged service account ID (`svac_...`).

  - `workspace_id: string`

    Tagged workspace ID (`wrkspc_...`).

  - `workspace_role: WorkspaceRole`

    Role of the service account in this workspace. Service accounts cannot hold the `workspace_billing` role.

    - `"workspace_admin"`

    - `"workspace_billing"`

    - `"workspace_developer"`

    - `"workspace_restricted_developer"`

    - `"workspace_user"`

- `next_page: string or null`

  Opaque cursor for the next page, or null if no more results.

### Example

```bash
curl https://api.anthropic.com/v1/organizations/workspaces/$WORKSPACE_ID/service_accounts \
    -H 'anthropic-version: 2023-06-01' \
    -H "X-Api-Key: $ANTHROPIC_API_KEY"
```

#### Response (200)

```json
{
  "data": [
    {
      "created_by_actor_id": "created_by_actor_id",
      "implicit": true,
      "service_account_id": "service_account_id",
      "type": "service_account_workspace_member",
      "workspace_id": "workspace_id",
      "workspace_role": "workspace_admin"
    }
  ],
  "next_page": "next_page"
}
```

## Create Service Account Workspace Member

**POST** `/v1/organizations/workspaces/{workspace_id}/service_accounts`

**Requires an OAuth access token with the `org:admin` scope**, from `ant auth login --scope org:admin` or a workload identity federation rule; Admin API keys are not accepted. See [Manage WIF with the Admin API](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/manage-claude/wif-admin-api?sdk_languages=http).

Add a service account to a workspace with the given `workspace_role`.

The role determines what the service account can do in the workspace and
which workspace-scoped permissions it can be granted when authenticating
through federation. Every service account is already an implicit
`workspace_user` member of the default workspace; adding it explicitly
assigns a chosen role. If the service account is already an explicit
member of the workspace, its `workspace_role` is replaced with the
value supplied here. Archived workspaces return 400. Archived service
accounts cannot be added and are rejected.

### Path parameters

- `workspace_id: string`

  ID of the workspace.

### Headers

- `"anthropic-version": optional string`

  The version of the Claude API you want to use.

  Read more about versioning and our version history [here](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/api/versioning?sdk_languages=http).

### Body parameters

- `service_account_id: string`

  Tagged service account ID to add.

- `workspace_role: NoBillingWorkspaceRole`

  Role to assign to the service account in this workspace.

  - `"workspace_admin"`

- `ServiceAccountWorkspaceMember object`

  - `type: "service_account_workspace_member"`

    default: service_account_workspace_member

  - `created_by_actor_id: string or null`

    Tagged ID (`user_...`/`svac_...`) of the actor who created this membership.

  - `implicit: boolean or null`

    True when this is the implicit default-workspace membership every service account has when no explicit membership exists. Implicit memberships have role `workspace_user` and cannot be removed.

  - `service_account_id: string`

    Tagged service account ID (`svac_...`).

  - `workspace_id: string`

    Tagged workspace ID (`wrkspc_...`).

  - `workspace_role: WorkspaceRole`

    Role of the service account in this workspace. Service accounts cannot hold the `workspace_billing` role.

    - `"workspace_admin"`

    - `"workspace_billing"`

    - `"workspace_developer"`

    - `"workspace_restricted_developer"`

    - `"workspace_user"`

## Get Service Account Workspace Member

**GET** `/v1/organizations/workspaces/{workspace_id}/service_accounts/{service_account_id}`

Retrieve a service account's membership in a workspace.

Returns the membership record, including the service account's
`workspace_role` in this workspace. Archived workspaces return 400. For

Change a service account's role in a workspace.

The new `workspace_role` replaces the current one. Only explicit
memberships can be updated; to set a role on the implicit
default-workspace membership, add the service account explicitly with

    -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
    -H 'anthropic-version: 2023-06-01' \
    -H "X-Api-Key: $ANTHROPIC_API_KEY" \

## Delete Service Account Workspace Member

**DELETE** `/v1/organizations/workspaces/{workspace_id}/service_accounts/{service_account_id}`

**Requires an OAuth access token with the `org:admin` scope**, from `ant auth login --scope org:admin` or a workload identity federation rule; Admin API keys are not accepted. See [Manage WIF with the Admin API](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/manage-claude/wif-admin-api?sdk_languages=http).

Remove a service account from a workspace.

Removal is idempotent (returns 200 even if the membership was already
removed). A DELETE against the implicit default-workspace membership
returns 200 but is a no-op and the membership persists; deleting an
explicit default-workspace row reverts to the implicit `workspace_user`
membership. Archived workspaces return 400.

### Path parameters

- `workspace_id: string`

  ID of the workspace.

- `service_account_id: string`

  ID of the service account.

### Headers

- `"anthropic-version": optional string`

  The version of the Claude API you want to use.

  Read more about versioning and our version history [here](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/api/versioning?sdk_languages=http).

### Returns

- `type: "service_account_workspace_member_deleted"`

  default: service_account_workspace_member_deleted

- `service_account_id: string`

  Tagged service account ID (`svac_...`) named in the delete request. Removal is idempotent; see the endpoint description for the implicit-membership no-op.

- `workspace_id: string`

  Tagged workspace ID (`wrkspc_...`) named in the delete request.

### Example

```bash
curl https://api.anthropic.com/v1/organizations/workspaces/$WORKSPACE_ID/service_accounts/$SERVICE_ACCOUNT_ID \
    -X DELETE \
    -H 'anthropic-version: 2023-06-01' \

```

#### Response (200)

```json
{
  "service_account_id": "service_account_id",
  "type": "service_account_workspace_member_deleted",
  "workspace_id": "workspace_id"
}
```
