Logging In as Another User
Account admins have the right to log in as another user unless it's been revoked using controlled admin permissions.
Admins can log in as a different user to see what content someone else could see/access, to help set up Wrike, or to troubleshoot.
Notice
It's not possible to log in as (1) the account owner, (2) a deleted user, (3) a user who is part of multiple Wrike accounts.
Once you log in as another user, you remain logged in as them until you log out. When you log in as another user, you can:
-
See everything as the user you are logged in as and access all the data they have access to.
-
Have all the same functionality and rights as the user you are logged in as. Any changes you make while logged in are tracked as having been made by the user you have logged in as.
Important
When you log in as another user, that user's profile becomes deactivated, and they're logged out on all devices. The user won't be able to log in until you log out of their account and reactivate them. In addition, a deactivated user cannot be selected in any user picker (filters, assignment, etc.).

When you’re done, remember to logout, log back in as yourself, and reactivate the user’s account once you are done.
Tip
If you run an Activity Report on logins, you will see when an admin has logged in as another user (two user IDs appear for the login event where an admin logs in as someone else).
