restrict workspace admin from creating service principal

Hello,

I would like to restrict workspace admins from creating service principals and leave this privilege only to the account admin. Is this possible? I am aware of the RestrictWorkspaceAdmins command, but it does not meet my needs. Additionally, I have looked into the possibility of monitoring the management of service principals through the auditLog tables, but I would like to understand if it is possible to delegate the creation of service principals exclusively to the account admin.

Hello @antonionuzzo!

Based on the documentation and my understanding, there isnโ€™t a built-in way to restrict the creation of service principals exclusively to account admins. And as you mentioned, the RestrictWorkspaceAdmins setting doesnโ€™t cover this specific permission. For now, the best approach is to monitor service principal activity through audit logs and enforce internal policies to manage this access.
