Manage service accounts at the project-level

Add service accounts to a Pinecone project and assign project roles to enable programmatic API access for automated workflows and CI pipelines.

This page shows how organization owners and project owners can add and manage service accounts at the project-level. Service accounts enable programmatic access to Pinecone's Admin API, which can be used to create and manage projects and API keys.
