Impersonating a user with multiple group memberships in the web console
You can start user impersonation from multiple locations in the Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform Console. Depending on where you start, you can impersonate a single user, a single group, or a user with one or more group memberships.
-
You must be logged in to the Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform web console as a user with permission to impersonate other users.
-
The user or group that you want to impersonate must already exist.
The impersonated user can belong to zero or more groups.
-
From the Overview page in the Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform console, click your user name and select Impersonate User.
-
In the Username field in the Impersonate dialog, enter the name of the user you want to impersonate.
-
Optional: In the Groups field, choose one or more groups that are associated with the user.
The dialog displays a warning message explaining that impersonation applies the effective permissions of the specified user and any selected groups.
-
Click Impersonate to impersonate your selected user, groups, or both.
Selecting one group uses the existing single-group impersonation behavior. Selecting no groups uses regular single-user impersonation.
