Is service account supported in confluence? If yes, can it be used to get API token(or some other authentication) to make Confluence REST API calls?
You will need to create a Confluence account, that you want to use a as service account.
You can create an API token for this used, by then logging on to Confluence as that user.
Just as @Matthias Gaiser _K15t_ mentions as well

I want to create a service account so that i can generate API token to fetch data using confluence REST APIs of my confluence data center.

Hey @Kshitij Katiyar
do you mean if you can create a user to be used in automations in Confluence? You can simply create a user account and create an API token for it (as documented here).
For Confluence, there's no differentiation between this service account and your other usual user accounts. Would you need anything here?
Cheers,
Matthias.

Hello @Kshitij Katiyar
Confluence has two types of users: regular ones and guests
Service users are for jira service desk projects where you have agents and customers.
That being said, you are looking for API endpoints for guests in Confluence?
In general, you have the API's for users rather than guests: https://developer.atlassian.com/server/confluence/rest/v930/api-group-user/#api-group-user
