​
Service Users and API Keys

This is available on the Enterprise Plan. Contact Kolena if you’re not on an Enterprise plan but would like to try this feature.
Service users can be created with API Keys associated to them. This allows you to create Keys that are not tied to a specific user’s memebership in your organization or their roles and permissions. Organization admins can create service users and API Keys from the “API Keys” tab on your organization page. Creating an API Key from this modal will also create a service user. This service user has a default organization role which you can manage, and can be given permissions on individual agents like any other organization user.

Managing API Keys Across Your Organization

Organization admins can manage and revoke API keys for their team members and service users through the “API Keys” tab on your organization page.
