Headless Authentication

Headless user accounts that cannot use the web UI to log in to Coder. This is useful for creating accounts for automated systems, such as CI/CD pipelines or for users who only consume Coder via another client/API.

You must have the User Admin role or above to create headless users.

Create a headless user

CLI

coder users create \
  --email="coder-bot@coder.com" \
  --username="coder-bot" \
  --login-type="none \

UI

Navigate to the Users > Create user in the topbar

Create a user via the UI

To make API or CLI requests on behalf of the headless user, learn how to generate API tokens on behalf of a user.
