How to log in as another user in Confluence (Data center)

[Nidhi Telang]

I have found link where it shows -  how to login as another user. But it is for Atlassian cloud.

https://confluence.atlassian.com/cloud/log-in-as-another-user-776994835.html

Can someone please help with the process/steps to log in as another user in atlassian confluence data center?

Thanks

Jack Nolddor [Sweet Bananas] made a free plugin for Confluence that is similar to the Jira User Switcher

In Atlassian Cofluence data center - you can log in as another user

Note : One should have administration rights

1. Go to Administration

2. Under script runner section -> Built-in scripts

3. You will find - "Switch to a different user"

Thanks

Hi Nidhi,

This doesn't work in Confluence by default. It does require the user of a 3rd-party add-on called Scriptrunner.
