Feature Request : Option to come back to Admin

[elan-k]

Hi,

It's an excellent option for an admin user to check the user screen quickly while changing the setting from the admin login. Great Work!

But when I'm on the user screen using the button "Impersonate" from the User Form, I'm unable to return back to the original admin screen for further changes on my observation.

Currently Using,

1. Return to the admin after logout from the respective user (Logout and Login as Admin again)
2. Use a different browser or Private Window to do the Impersonate login (2 admin logins on the different browsers - One for settings and changes and another one for "Impersonate" login).

We have an option to return to admin if we could identify this login using Impersonate on the user form (if possible).

I understand that there are no differences in terms of logging in using the "Impersonate" button other than just an additional entry in the activities log. If possible, please include some suggestions to retain the admin privileges while using the "Impersonate" button in the README.md file or in the documents, which will help people to quickly understand and make use of the application effectively.

Once again, Thank you for your great work!

Hi, Thanks for your feedback. From a security point of view, it's not good idea to allow the impersonated user to elevate their access level without some kind of authentication. I workaround this issue by using two browsers - one for administration and the other to impersonate. OTTOMH, it might be possible to display a banner that indicates impersonation is in progress and an option to 'Exit Access'. Regards Leo
