Service account ​

A service account is technical account that can be used to automate interactions with the Cloud-IAM API: monitoring, managing your extensions, automated data export, etc

Despite you could use nominative accounts to do so, we encourage you to use them because they survive to membership reorganization.

We provide a curl command to use your service account with our api:

curl https://iam.cloud-iam.com/auth/realms/cloud-iam/protocol/openid-connect/token \
  -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
  -d "grant_type=client_credentials" \
  -d "client_id=sa_[...]" \
  -d "client_secret=[...]"

curl https://iam.cloud-iam.com/auth/realms/cloud-iam/protocol/openid-connect/token \
  -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
