Acquia DAM

Signing in as another user

The option to log in as a teammate gives admins the ability to view Acquia DAM Classic as another user for troubleshooting or training purposes.

For example, before rolling out Acquia DAM Classic to all users, an admin can view Brand Connect as a user to ensure that everything (including permissions) is set up properly.

Once logged in as a teammate, you will view Acquia DAM Classic from that user’s perspective and can perform all actions based on that user’s group permissions. Any action that you perform will display in the corresponding report. For example, logging in as a teammate will display in the Login Tracker report, while any downloads will display in the Download Tracker report.

How to sign in as another user

  1. Log in to Acquia DAM Classic.

  2. Click Teams in the top navigation panel and select Users.

  3. Navigate or search for the user you want to impersonate.

  4. Under the Actions column to the far right, click the Wrench icon and choose Log in as a teammate. This will log you in as the user in the same browser and tab.

  5. Admins may log in as any user except other admins. Only the main site admin will have access to log in as other admins.

To log out: Log out of Brand Connect or Acquia DAM Classic as you normally would. You will be directed back to the login screen, where you can log back in as the admin.
