View As

The View As feature lets super admins temporarily see the portal from the perspective of a specific platform admin or account admin. It's useful when investigating a support ticket ("what does the customer actually see?") or verifying that a role's access is configured correctly.

info

View As is a super-admin-only feature. Platform admins and account admins cannot start a View As session.

Starting a View As session

Look for the eye icon (👁) in the row actions column:

  • View as platform admin — from the Platforms table, click the eye icon on the platform you want to impersonate.
  • View as account admin — from the Accounts table, click the eye icon on the account you want to impersonate.

Once started, a colored banner pins to the top of every page showing the active session (e.g. Viewing as Account Admin — Acme Inc.). The sidebar and all pages render as they would for that role.

Ending a View As session

Click Exit on the banner to return to your normal super-admin view.

note

Actions you take while in View As mode are logged with your real super-admin identity, not the impersonated one, so there's a clear audit trail.
