## Syntax {#syntax}

The [`mc admin user svcacct info`](#command-mc.admin.user.svcacct.info) command returns a description of the specified [access key](/administration/identity-access-management/minio-user-management/#minio-id-access-keys).

“Access Keys” have equivalent functionality to and replace the concept of “Service Accounts” in MinIO.

The description output includes the following details, as available:

- Access Key
- Parent user of the specified access key
- Access key status (`on` or `off`)
- Policy or policies
- Comment
- Expiration

Use [`--policy`](#mc.admin.user.svcacct.info.-policy) to view the attached policies.

**EXAMPLE**

The following command returns information on the specified access key:

```shell
mc admin user svcacct info myminio myuseraccesskey
```

**SYNTAX**

The command has the following syntax:

```shell
mc [GLOBALFLAGS] admin user svcacct info           \
                                    [--policy]     \
                                    ALIAS          \
                                    ACCESSKEY
```

- Brackets `[]` indicate optional parameters.
- Parameters sharing a line are mutually dependent.
- Parameters separated using the pipe `|` operator are mutually exclusive.

Copy the example to a text editor and modify as-needed before running the command in the terminal/shell.

## Behavior {#behavior}

### S3 Compatibility {#s3-compatibility}

The **`mc`** commandline tool is built for compatibility with the AWS S3 API and is tested with MinIO and AWS S3 for expected functionality and behavior.

MinIO provides no guarantees for other S3-compatible services, as their S3 API implementation is unknown and therefore unsupported. While **`mc`** commands *may* work as documented, any such usage is at your own risk.
