Mammoth allows you to choose between two roles:
Analyst - Analysts can import data, create pipelines and generate reports

Only a user with ADMIN or OWNER rights can assign/change user roles.

Note
Passwords that use alphabets (UPPERCASE & lowercase), numbers, and symbols and are 8-14 characters long are tougher to crack. Enhance your account’s security by choosing a strong password.
