Users
There are two core concepts that is important to understand: user types and user roles. User types determines access of the user, while the user role assigned to a user determine the specific actions they can perform.
There are three types of DigiCert ONE users:
User (AS)
A standard user with access to a specific account. Users can sign in to the platform with their credentials and connect to client tools and APIs using their API key and client authentication certificate.
Service user (AS)
Designed for automated workflows, service users also have access to a specific account but cannot sign into the platform. They authenticate with client tools and APIs using their API key and client certificate, typically on build servers or other automated systems.
System user (SS)
A system-wide user type reserved for DigiCert employees who manage customer accounts. System users have access to the entire platform and all accounts. In on-premise deployments, this user type may include authorized external users.
