## Overview

:::callout{intent="info"}
Service Accounts are currently only available for multi-seat customers, and only Workspace admins
can use this feature. To upgrade, [get in touch with our sales team](https://elevenlabs.io/contact-sales).
:::

Service Accounts and their respective API keys allow access to workspace resources without relying on an individual's access to ElevenLabs.

## Service Accounts

A service account acts as a workspace member. When originally created, they do not have access to any resources.

The service account can be granted access to resources by either adding the service account to a group or directly sharing resources with the service account.
It is recommended to add them to a group so that future users can be added to the same group and have the same permissions.

## API keys

API keys are created within a service account and authenticate your requests to the ElevenLabs API. For creating, rotating, scoping, and securing them, see [API Keys](/guides/overview-administration-workspaces-api-keys).
