Settings > Account > Service Accounts

Service Accounts can be created by account administrators when Bridgit Bench credentials are needed for integration or to use Bridgit's API. Service Accounts differ from User Accounts:

• Can be created without going through the email/sign-up flow.
• Cannot be used to log in to the Bridgit Bench web/mobile app.
• There is a globally unique identifier (GUID) for a service account, not an email address.

Create a Service Account

1. Select Settings > Account > Service Accounts > Add Service Account.
2. Enter a Name and Permission Group for the service account. Select Save to proceed.
   • Set up the service account with Administrator permission in order to modify or create new data through the API.
3. A Unique Identifier and Password are available to be copied. Select Copy to copy this info to the clipboard. 
   • Be sure you save the password in a secure location since this is a unique one-time password.
   • If the password is lost, select Reset password to generate a new one.
4. Select Done to proceed to the main Service Accounts window. 

Modify a Service Account

Administrators can delete a service account or complete a password reset. Select an existing service account to modify:

A new service account has to be created if the name or the permission group needs to be updated.
