labmanager

We have an automation process which undeploys specific configuration on LM every night. this process also deploy the configuration at morning.

The problem is that this process works as admin so all this configs deployed by admin, which means sometimes they deployed on "reserved" resources pool. I want to try to impersonate a user on Lab Manager so the configuration will be deployed by the user owned this machine, and not by admin.

does anyone has any idea how to do so?
