The API allows you to create, retrieve, update, and delete individual service accounts, as well as list all your service accounts. Related guide: [Service Accounts in Confluent Cloud](https://docs.confluent.io/cloud/current/access-management/service-account.html). ## The Service Accounts Model ## Quotas and Limits This resource is subject to the [following quotas](https://docs.confluent.io/cloud/current/quotas/overview.html): | Quota | Description | | --- | --- | | `service_accounts_per_org` | Service Accounts in one Confluent Cloud organization | - `api_version` 'iam/v2' — APIVersion defines the schema version of this representation of a resource. - `kind` 'ServiceAccount' — Kind defines the object this REST resource represents. - `id` string — ID is the "natural identifier" for an object within its scope/namespace; it is normally unique across time but not space. That is, you can assume that the ID will not be reclaimed and reused after an object is deleted ("time"); however, it may collide with IDs for other object `kinds` or objects of the same `kind` within a different scope/namespace ("space"). - `metadata` object — ObjectMeta is metadata that all persisted resources must have, which includes all objects users must create. - `self` string, uri, required — Self is a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) at which an object can be addressed. This URL encodes the service location, API version, and other particulars necessary to locate the resource at a point in time - `resource_name` string, uri — Resource Name is a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) that is globally unique across space and time. It is represented as a Confluent Resource Name - `created_at` string, date-time — The date and time at which this object was created. It is represented in RFC3339 format and is in UTC. - `updated_at` string, date-time — The date and time at which this object was last updated. It is represented in RFC3339 format and is in UTC. - `deleted_at` string, date-time — The date and time at which this object was (or will be) deleted. It is represented in RFC3339 format and is in UTC. - `display_name` string — A human-readable name for the Service Account - `description` string — A free-form description of the Service Account ## Response `200` Service Account. - object — `ServiceAccount` objects are typically used to represent applications and other non-human principals that may access your Confluent resources.
