      Issue Summary

      Impersonating a user shows incorrect menu items that the user doesn't have permissions for.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Limit a user's role, for example, remove all Enterprise level permissions
      2. As a super admin, impersonate that user
      3. Navigate to Enterprise menu and notice that we can select far more options in the left menu than the user themselves can see
        • The menu items are there, but clicking on some of them results in access denied page which is expected

      Expected Results

      Impersonating a user should ideally show exactly what that user can see, including the menu items.

      Actual Results

      The impersonator can see more than the user can see making it hard to troubleshoot things like role permissions.

      Workaround

      Currently, there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available.
