Managing Requests

Day to day management of Keeper Privilege Manager elevation requests

Managing Elevation Requests

As end-users generate elevation requests, administrators can efficiently manage these requests through the Keeper Admin Console. This interface provides a streamlined process for approving or denying requests in real-time, ensuring that legitimate user needs are met while maintaining security.

Accessing the Requests Dashboard

To manage elevation requests:

1. Log in to the Keeper Admin Console

2. Navigate to Privilege Manager > Requests tab

Working with the Request Queue

The requests dashboard displays all pending elevation requests across your environment. By default, requests are sorted by wait time and priority, ensuring that users are processed in the order received.
