# Service Accounts

## Creating a Service Account

Service Accounts are API-only users that are permissioned as human team members, but do not count toward your Team's subscription utilization.

To create a Service Account, Click "Service Accounts" in the Admin Console Side Nav:

Click "Create Service Account" and select the Role of the account.

{% hint style="info" %}
You cannot change the Role for the service account after you create it
{% endhint %}

When you create the account, PixieBrix will display a "Service Account Created" modal with the token for the service account.

See the [Making an API Request](/developer-api/making-an-api-request.md#authentication) section for directions on how to use the service account token.
