What permissions are required to test as another user?

I want my team members to be able to use the "test as another user" feature but I do not want them to have admin privileges. Is this possible?

Hi Evan,
I've given management access, but they don't want to be admins to change anything. They do however want to see different departments homepages (I've set up some of the homepages so they can show the projects/tasks for who's logged in). I use that "Is current user" a lot so people's homepages are specific to them.

Hi Even,
Does that make sense? Not possible?

    Megan,
    Try enabling that Role to be able to manage Users share the app.

    "Manage users and share the app"

    at the top of the Permissions tab.

      Hey Mark,
      Can test as a role, but not a user.

        Only users with Administrator access will be able to Test as a User. If you're doing this so that management can see a dashboard that's keyed to the "Current User", you'll have to build additional structure and setup a special dashboard for Management to be able to do that without having Administrator access.
