Switch user providing own password












0















While switching to a privileged user, we enter the privileged user's password. Can I use my own password instead?



Current flow:
user1 -- > serviceAcctUser (serviceAcctUser password)



Required:
user1 -- > serviceAcctUser (user1's password)
