Difference Between Service account and Service Principal? Pros and Cons. Price Difference.

Posted on by 115

Hello Everyone.

 

I read many posts regarding service account and service principal. And in most of the links the process of making both was similar so I got a lot more confused. 

 

Dont send any link, just give an answer according to your experience.

 

I am making Pipeline with Azure Dev Ops so I created a user/app in App Registrations and then using it in the Power Platform Admin Portal. Now this user/app will be the owner of the solution/flows I will be transferring from one environment to another. 

 

So, I just wanted to know the difference between both of them to use as the owner of the flow/solution.
