Test user assigned permissions as a global super

Posted on by SammyG 386
Hello all,
In out current on prem I can test a user permission as I have more than 1 user login however in the cloud as I am linked via 365 to my SSO login I can only have 1 login. This means that I cannot evaluate other people’s permission sets without ‘bricking’ myself out. Short of creating another email address for me is there a way I can assign myself a set of permission without compromising my super user access?
Just need to ensure that segregation of duties is not being compromised.
Many thanks

    Hi, Just adding some information, if you don't have extra licenses, you can also try External Accountant. Although the functions are somewhat limited, you can try to see if you can complete your test.

    Hope this helps as well.
    Thanks.

    Not really, there's two options:
     
    1.  Have another user with super user access assign your super user permissions back when you're done testing
    2. As you mentioned, have a 2nd user for yourself
