I vote for creating a 'Ninja User' - that way, the service account can access the API without anyone even knowing it's there!

Hold up, what about Initiator? Isn't that the user type used for automation and integrations? Sounds like the perfect fit!

Ah, I see. An Editor would have the necessary permissions to access the Appian Web API, right? Makes sense to me.

Hmm, I'm not sure a System Administrator is the right choice here. Isn't that overkill for a simple service account?

I think we need to create a Basic User for this service account. Seems like the most appropriate option to me.
