Delete a Privileged Account Exception

A privileged account exception lets a user check out a privileged account that they are otherwise not authorized to check out. Once a SAM Approver approves a privileged account access request, the requester can check out the privileged account during the period in which the request is valid. You can delete the privileged account exception to prevent the user from being able to check out the account the exception applies to. To delete privileged account exceptions your account must have the default Privileged Account Request or SAM Target System Manager roles assigned, or an equivalent role that contains this task.
