+## Service Account Issuer Discovery
+
+{{< feature-state for_k8s_version="v1.18" state="alpha" >}}
+
+The Service Account Issuer Discovery feature is enabled by enabling the
+`ServiceAccountIssuerDiscovery` [feature gate](/docs/reference/command-line-tools-reference/feature)
+and then enabling the Service Account Token Projection feature as described above.
+
+{{< note >}}
+Note that the issuer URL must comply with the
+[OIDC Discovery Spec](https://openid.net/specs/openid-connect-discovery-1_0.html). In
+practice, this means it must use the `https` scheme, and should serve an OpenID
+provider configuration at `{service-account-issuer}/.well-known/openid-configuration`.
+
+If the URL does not comply, the `ServiceAccountIssuerDiscovery` endpoints will
+not be registered, even if the feature is enabled.
+{{< /note >}}
+
+The Service Account Issuer Discovery feature enables federation of Kubernetes
+service account tokens issued by a cluster (the _identity provider_) with
+external systems (_relying parties_).
+
+When enabled, the Kubernetes API server provides an OpenID Provider
+Configuration document at `/.well-known/openid-configuration` and the associated
+JSON Web Key Set (JWKS) at `/openid/v1/jwks`. The OpenID Provider Configuration
+is sometimes referred to as the _discovery document_.
+
+When enabled, the cluster is also configured with a default RBAC `ClusterRole`
+called `system:service-account-issuer-discovery`. No role bindings are provided
+by default. Administrators may, for example, choose whether to bind the role to
+`system:authenticated` or `system:unauthenticated` depending on their security
+requirements and which external systems they intend to federate with.
+
+{{< note >}}
+The responses served at `/.well-known/openid-configuration` and
+`/openid/v1/jwks` are designed to be OIDC compatible, but not strictly OIDC
+compliant. Those documents contain only the parameters necessary to perform
+validation of Kubernetes service account tokens.
+{{< /note >}}
+
+The JWKS response contains public keys that a relying party can use to validate
+the Kubernetes service account tokens. Relying parties first query for the
+OpenID Provider Configuration, and use the `jwks_uri` field in the response to
+find the JWKS.
+
+In many cases, Kubernetes API servers are not available on the public internet,
+but public endpoints that serve cached responses from the API server can be made
+available by users or service providers. In these cases, it is possible to
+override the `jwks_uri` in the OpenID Provider Configuration so that it points
+to the public endpoint, rather than the API server's address, by passing the
+`--service-account-jwks-uri` flag to the API server. Like the issuer URL, the
+JWKS URI is required to use the `https` scheme.
