There are occasional scenarios when you might need a Red Canary service account, such as:
Following best practices that dictate that API users use a distinct service account.
Creating users with a phone number linked to a pager or call tree so that the user can be configured as the recipient of an automation playbook or added to a list of persons to call in an emergency.
Create a service account
You can create a service account in the same way you invite other users to Red Canary.
Click your user profile at top right of Red Canary, and then click Users & Roles.
Enter the email address that will be associated with the service account and click Invite.
Accept the invitation by clicking the link in the invitation email.
Use the service account as desired.
Creating a service account requires a valid email address that will receive an invitation email.
