Description

NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

Hi,

it would be a very usefull feature for the administrator of Jira to be able to 'become' another user for testing purpose or to reproduce errors etc
I think of a behaviour like 'su - <username>' under Linux/Unix.
You could add a field "switch to userid" in the administration interface, or add a 'switch to this user' in the users profile.

Regards
Markus Nospers

See ~~JRA-10871~~ for the same request on Jira
