Disclaimer: The selection of Service Account in this video (in the setup of a Service) is a bit misleading. In the video, a Service Account "Public" is selected to execute the Service. Typically, you would select a Service Account "Service User" instead, which is a member of a Role "Services" or similar, that only have access to the Service and the Object Classes used in the Service.
