+==== Authenticate with a service account
+
+Before being able to authenticate against the Admin REST API using a `client_id` and a `client_secret` you need to make sure the client is configured as it follows:
+
+* `client_id` is a **confidential** client that belongs to the realm *master*
+* `client_id` has `Service Accounts Enabled` option enabled
+* `client_id` has a custom "Audience" mapper
+  ** Included Client Audience: `security-admin-console`
+
+Finally, check that `client_id` has the role 'admin' assigned in the "Service Account Roles" tab.
+
+After that, you will be able to obtain an access token for the Admin REST API using `client_id` and `client_secret`:
+
+[source,bash]
+----
+curl \
+  -d "client_id=<YOUR_CLIENT_ID>" \
+  -d "client_secret=<YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET>" \
+  -d "grant_type=client_credentials" \
+  "http://localhost:8080/auth/realms/master/protocol/openid-connect/token"
