# Machine Accounts

Use Machine Account subtypes to create machine accounts in ServiceNow. Use the Create Machine Account feature in SailPoint. SailPoint classifies machine accounts during aggregation.

1. Create Machine Account subtypes to create Machine accounts in ServiceNow.
2. Classify Machine Accounts when aggregating into SailPoint. Enable Classification to turn on/off the classification.
3. Classify all accounts, or add customized classification (for example, identity\_type is machine).
4. Use attributes and transforms to assign a human owner who manages the machine accounts. Use the same mappings to correlate each machine account to a machine identity. Map other attributes to set the remaining account details.
5. Configure approvals for Machine Account deletion requests at the source level and per account subtype.
