There’s a new page in the docs: [Create limited service accounts with role-based access control (RBAC)](https://docs.sensu.io/sensu-go/latest/operations/control-access/create-limited-service-accounts/).

This doc explains how to create limited service accounts that represent applications or services rather than individual human users, with best practices and an example to use with the [Sensu EC2 Handler](https://docs.sensu.io/sensu-go/latest/plugins/supported-integrations/aws-ec2/) integration.

If you have any questions or comments, please let us know!
