Dear Community Members,
I would like to know, Can data loader application be used only with admin profile,can the user having data loader be restricted to a certain object and records?
Please let me know if it is possible.

Hi Siddharth,
No, Salesforce Data Loader does not require a System Administrator role, but it does require specific permissions to function properly the user must have API Enabled permission along with appropriate object-level access such as Create, Read, Edit, or Delete depending on the operation being performed, and also field-level access to the relevant fields, otherwise the data cannot be viewed or modified—so while admin access is not mandatory, sufficient permissions are essential for using Data Loader effectively.
