JIT writer access to UDE

Hello experts,

From Visual Studio 2022, when I request the JIT access, the writer access option is not available, only the reader. However I can still access the writer level last week.

Do you have any idea?

Thanks,

Hi LB developer,

This is odd. Have you recently installed an update for the development tools? I have the writer option available.

Have you tried to restart Visual Studio?

Are you running Visual Studio in administration mode?

Is the environment itself in admin mode? If so, disable the admin mode.

Check if there is a plugin update for the development tools.

Hi,

This behavior usually occurs because writer-level JIT access has been disabled or restricted by environment settings or security policy. In recent platform updates, Microsoft tightened JIT controls to reduce risk, so the SQL User Role dropdown often defaults to Reader unless:

The environment is in maintenance mode and the user has the System Administrator role.

The JIT policy in LCS explicitly allows writer access for that environment.

The request is made from an environment owner account or an account with the required Azure AD role.

What to check:

Environment settings in LCS

Go to Environment details ▸ Maintain ▸ Enable JIT access and confirm that writer access is allowed. If the option is missing, your project policy may have removed it.

User permissions

Ensure your account has the Environment administrator role in LCS and the System Administrator role in the Finance app.

Advanced option

In some builds, you must check Advanced before the dropdown shows additional roles (Writer, Maintainer).

Recent policy changes

If this worked last week, confirm whether your organization applied a security policy update or if the environment moved to a managed tier where writer JIT is no longer permitted.

If these checks confirm that writer access is restricted by policy, the only supported way to regain it is through LCS project settings or by requesting a temporary elevation from your environment admin.

Could you verify if enabling the advanced option or checking LCS JIT settings resolves the issue?

Thanks and best regards,

Daniele
