Description

The Sudo Plugin performs the same function as the Unix sudo command for Confluence allowing specified users to impersonate other users without requiring their password.

Via the Plugin Configuration select which users can sudo to other usernames. Those users can then use the Test Sudo page (sudo/testSudo.action) or SOAP sudo and unsudo methods to change who they are.

Possible use cases include:

  • Support: See what the user sees when they ask for support
  • Add news: Create news stories as a specified user such as a P.A. creating news articles on behalf of their boss
  • Remote Scripts: Run scripts as different users, performing searches as joe without requiring a password

This is one of a set of plugins that provide some of the essential things you need to get the most out of your Confluence Wiki. It requires the Plugin Licensing Manager and a free pack license to work, which you can get quickly and easily from our website.
