Login as a different user

Posted on by Community Member

I'm in the process of doing some testing and I can't seem to figure out how to login as a different user. I have administrator rights and I'm trying to test things based upon what a standard user can see. How do I do this?

    It would be great to have the ability to login as a different user without having to provide credentials every time.

    Hi

    One way of doing it is, you can impersonate another user using the Web API: Check out this simple blog:

    docs.microsoft.com/.../impersonate-another-user-web-api

    another way is to use some third party tool which provide Co-Browser feature.

    Thank you, Pranav! I am sure there will be a need for impersonalization as I progress along my project. I was looking for a mere way to log in as another user to test access.
