I have a requirement to grant security_admin role to one of our admins.
I elevated myself and added the role, but the admin does see the option to elevate their role.

Hi @John H1
Yes, administrators typically have the option to temporarily elevate their own roles, such as gaining temporary access to higher privileges or roles like security_admin. This allows them to perform tasks that require elevated permissions without permanently changing their base role.
Kindly mark my answer as helpful and accept solution if it helped you in anyway.

Hi @John H1
Can you share some screen shot to understand this - but the admin does see the option to elevate their role.
