Impersonating another user as a site administrator

Site administrators can proxy log in as another non-administrator user. They can view the site and navigate as if they are logged in as that user.
Impersonation must be turned on at system admin level, via your Profile menu >
System admin
. Navigate to
System settings
 and search for
Enable Impersonation
:
Once you are impersonating your chosen user, you see the following message:
This informs you that if you navigate away from the site you are viewing, the session expires.
You can:
  • View the site as the user you have impersonated
  • View the content and actions available to the user and take actions on their behalf
  • All actions during the impersonation session are audited
  • You are still logged in to your own account; content in windows outside the impersonation session reflects your own permissions
