Create Service Account

organization.service_accounts.create(**kwargs) -> ServiceAccount

POST/v1/organizations/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.

Create a service account.

A service account is a named workload identity that federation rules target. organization_role is developer (default) or admin; a rule may only be created or retargeted to grant org:admin scope when the target's organization_role is admin. Creating an admin-role service account requires an interactive credential (a user OAuth token or a Console session) — a workload may only create developer-role service accounts.

Parameters

name: str

Slug identifier (lowercase, digits, hyphens). Unique within the organization; a duplicate name returns 409.

minLength1

maxLength255

description: Optional[str]

Optional free-text description.

maxLength2000

organization_role: Optional[Literal["admin", "developer"]]

Org-level role. Defaults to developer.

One of the following:

"admin"

"developer"

Returns

class ServiceAccount: type: "service_account"; id; archived_at; ... # 8 more

Named non-human identity within the caller's organization.

A service account is a pure identity: name + org. Authorization lives on whatever references it (federation rules).
