Hi ​@JLTLBURTHUN 

Service User for users that are used for integration purposes. Service users can not log in to the IFS Cloud application directly.
https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/25r2/030_administration/011_users/020_new_users/#creating_a_new_user 
(IFS Cloud 25R2 documentation)

Example - integrating IFS with Salesforce you would create an IAM Client (https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/25r2/030_administration/010_security/040_iam_settings/035_iam_clients/) with a connected Service User. Salesforce would then use these details to broker a connection to call IFS REST APIs.

Cheers,
Pete
