Service accounts and PATs

Non-human principals for automation. A PAT carries exactly its service account’s role, in its own organization only.

A service account belongs to one organization and authenticates with a personal access token sent as a bearer token. Chorus stores only a hash of the token and honors its expiry.

With a writer role, a service account can create and change records the way a member can. Records it creates have no record owner.

There is no API route that creates a service account: an operator creates one deliberately.
