Bulk upload supports a Download Template option and an optional Delete Existing Users flag (the new file must include at least one admin account).

Account types

Four account types are supported:

Type

Typical use

admin

Full access — System Admin, setup wizard, tests, agent management, and other restricted features

cabler

Standard operator — some admin-only actions are hidden; certain operations (e.g. circuit simulation) are restricted

nvidia

NVIDIA internal user

developer

Developer access

Account type controls what appears in the sidebar and which actions are available across the app. The backend enforces admin-only API operations separately.

Safeguards

  • Usernames must be unique and cannot use reserved names (e.g. system)

  • Password length and format are validated on create/update

  • The last admin account cannot be deleted or demoted to a non-admin type

  • You cannot remove your own account while logged in
