Chapter 1. Service accounts
An account can be either a user account or a service account. A user account authenticates human users in your organization. A service account authenticates applications or services without human intervention. You create service accounts on Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console for the following reasons:
- An application or service needs access to specific resources.
- The application or service needs to access resources without the need for human intervention.
- The application or service needs to access resources from multiple locations.
You must use service accounts to connect to cloud service APIs on Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console. Red Hat support for basic authentication ends on December 31, 2024 and will only permit token-based authentication after that date. Service accounts support token-based authentication.
For more information about service account implementation, see Transition of Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console APIs from basic authentication to token-based authentication via service accounts.
APIs require an access grant token from Red Hat Single Sign-On. The token expires after 15 minutes (900 seconds). Repeat the process of obtaining an access token every 10 minutes (600 seconds) so that the token is rotated prior to expiration. RFC 6749, Section 4.1.4
