Switch User

To switch back to your original user, click the Return to session as [your name] link in the Switch User banner, or log out and in again.

  1. Navigate to Built-in Scripts > Switch to a Different User.

  2. Under User, type the name of the target user.

  3. Click Preview to see if the user switch is valid.

    You cannot switch to a user with a higher permission level than your own.

You can disable/enable this feature in ScriptRunner Settings. See our settings documentation for more information.
