Log out of Masquerading

131 votes

Instead of having to open and work from an incognito window, having the ability when masquerading as a different user to log out of that users profile and return to your own.

This would be awesome. Canvas LMS has this feature for aliasing/masquerading but flipping back/forth implemented really, really well -- you can see their full process and screenshots at the link below.

Yes, We have recently switched to Azure and now masquerading is very useful except signing in and out constantly. I am also going to add a suggestion to give masquerading to certain security groups.

Yes, I always have to fully close down all my browser windows to switch back and forth. I suggest a bar that displays at the top when you are masquerading that allows you to switch between which user you'd like to be.

Very useful feature but logging out the masqueraded user is imperative.

The trick I have found for this is to go to 25Live Reports and then hit "Sign out" from the More menu. It takes you back to your own profile and out of the masqueraded profile.

Yes. This would be a great addition. Currently, when masquerading I go to Reports as mentioned above. A bit cumbersome but works well. No need to use an incognito tab. However, Anything a little slicker than this workaround will be very much appreciated.
