How do I switch into a staff member's view with My Team Switcher?

Check the Rights a manager needs, switch into a team member's account to see FlowLogic as they do, and switch back when finished.

Key Points

  • My Team Switcher lets a team manager temporarily view FlowLogic as a staff member they manage, without needing that person's login details.

  • You must be a team manager with staff assigned to you in Manage Teams, and have the teams_manage and admin_teamswitch Rights. Otherwise the feature won't be visible.

  • To switch, click your name in the top menu, select My Team Switcher from the profile dropdown, then select and confirm a staff member from your team.

  • While switched, you see the system exactly as they do and any actions use their access level, so avoid unnecessary changes.

  • To return to your own account, open the profile menu, click My Team Switcher and select the option to switch back.

The My Team Switcher allows managers to temporarily view FlowLogic from the perspective of staff members they manage. This makes it easier to support users, troubleshoot issues, and understand exactly what a staff member can see and access within the system.

It is a powerful feature designed to reduce back-and-forth when resolving day-to-day issues.

Important Considerations

This feature provides full visibility into another user’s system experience, so it should be used carefully.

Keep in mind:

  • You are operating within another user’s permissions
  • Any actions taken will reflect their access level
  • Changes made may impact their data or workflow

Because of this, access should be limited to appropriate roles only.

Best Practices

When using My Team Switcher:

  • Use it primarily for support and troubleshooting
  • Avoid making unnecessary changes while switched
  • Always switch back after completing your task
  • Ensure only authorised managers have access
