Regarding Identity and Access Management (IAM), Which type of special account belonging to your application allows your code to access Google services programmatically?

  • A. Service account
  • B. Simple Key
  • C. OAuth
  • D. Code account
Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A 🗳️
A service account is a special Google account that can be used by applications to access Google services programmatically. This account belongs to your application or a virtual machine (VM), instead of to an individual end user. Your application uses the service account to call the Google API of a service, so that the users aren't directly involved.
A service account can have zero or more pairs of service account keys, which are used to authenticate to Google. A service account key is a public/private key pair generated by Google. Google retains the public key, while the user is given the private key.
