# Create a System Service Account Token with the Houston API

### Create a System Service Account Token

System administrators can create a global system service account token to integrate with external systems, such as CI/CD pipelines. Use the following example mutation to create the service account token:

```graphql wrap theme={null}
mutation systemSACreate {
  createSystemServiceAccount(
    label: "your-sa"
    role: SYSTEM_ADMIN
  ) {
    id
    apiKey
  }
}
```

Save a copy of the returned API key value in a secure place as it won't be displayed again.
