In Archer, the ability to perform a data import is governed by Access Roles , not strictly by high-level system administrative accounts. Under the "Rights" tab of an Access Role configuration, there is a specific permission labeled "Data Import." According to the Archer Administration II curriculum, any user assigned to a role with this right enabled—and who also possesses "Create" or "Update" permissions for the target application—can utilize the Data Import tool.
While a System Administrator (Option A) inherently has these rights, the platform is designed for delegated administration. Therefore, a business user or a "Power User" can be granted the specific ability to import data without having full system-wide control. Options B and C are incorrect because "Report Administrators" focus on dashboard and report metadata, and while an administrator might create a custom group named "Data Import," no such hard-coded group exists by default in the Archer out-of-the-box security model. The granularity of Archer's security ensures that data integrity is maintained by linking the import capability directly to the user's functional role and application-level permissions.
