# Microsoft Entra Privileged Identity Management: time-based and approval-based role activation over
# Microsoft Entra roles, Azure resource roles and groups ("What is Privileged Identity Management?").
# An eligible assignment grants nothing until it is activated; "Configure Microsoft Entra role settings
# in PIM" presents MFA, justification, ticket and approval as settings an administrator turns on and
# states no default for any of them, and caps activation duration at one to 24 hours, so none is defaulted here.
