Getting the service account ID

If you do not have the Yandex Cloud command line interface yet, install and initialize it.

The folder specified in the CLI profile is used by default. You can specify a different folder using the --folder-name or --folder-id parameter.

If you know the service account name, use the get command to get the account ID:

yc iam service-account get my-robot

Result:

id: aje6o61dvog2********
...

If you don't know the name, get a list of service accounts in the default folder:

yc iam service-account list

Result:

+----------------------+------------------+-------------------------------+
|          ID          |       NAME       |          DESCRIPTION          |
+----------------------+------------------+-------------------------------+
| aje6o61dvog2******** | my-robot         |                               |
| aje9sda1ufvq******** | account_name     | account_description           |
+----------------------+------------------+-------------------------------+

1. Find out the ID of the folder where the service account was created.

2. Get information about the service accounts in the folder using the list REST API method for the ServiceAccount resource:

   export FOLDER_ID=b1gvmob95yys********
   export IAM_TOKEN=CggaATEVAgA...
   curl -H "Authorization: Bearer ${IAM_TOKEN}" \
     "https://iam.api.cloud.yandex.net/iam/v1/serviceAccounts?folderId=${FOLDER_ID}"
   
   {
    "serviceAccounts": [
     {
      "id": "ajebqtreob2d********",
      "folderId": "b1gvmob95yys********",
      "createdAt": "2018-10-18T13:42:40Z",
      "name": "my-robot",
      "description": "my description"
     }
    ]
   }
   

   You can also get information about the service accounts in the folder using the ServiceAccountService/List gRPC API call.
