 authentication token and project ID. The token's associated service account necessitates project membership privileges
 for record set creation.
 
+### Authentication via STACKIT service account
+
+The service account allows the user to use a long lived authentication which generates short lived tokens. To setup a service account refer to the [service account documentation](https://docs.stackit.cloud/stackit/en/create-a-service-account-134415839.html).
+It's important to also set the --dns-stackit-project-id flag to the corresponding STACKIT project when using a service account.
