Just-in-time elevation is a security concept that pertains to providing temporary access to resources or services, ensuring that permissions are granted only for the specific time they are required and not a moment more. The Just-in-time feature in Devolutions Server grants temporary membership to selected Active Directory groups from a specified list.
The Just-in-time elevation feature is only available for Domain accounts.

The domain provider Just-in-time elevation configuration will allow privileged accounts to request elevation, i.e. to become a temporary member of the following Active Directory groups: Remote Desktop Manager Admins; Remote Desktop Manager Service Desk or Remote Desktop Manager Admins - Universal. The temporary group name will start with RDM_JIT and will be created in the Domain Groups\Vaults\Internal OU.
The _backupoperator15 privileged account checkout process is requesting a 2 hours elevation to be part of the Remote Desktop Manager Admins Active Directory group.
