Command Approval allows admins to control in-session policies using the managerial approval feature. It is only applicable for SSH sessions. This feature is configured as a policy setting in a policy group and enables users to run a command and wait for the manager’s approval. The command is run in the target system if the manager approves. To configure managerial approval for command executions:

1. **Navigate to Policy Control** > **Policy Group**.
2. On the right side of the page, select **Approval via Email** as the Action for the commands to be run with managerial approval.
3. Save the policy group that includes commands that require approval.
