Issue
- Attempting to impersonate a user who has not logged in yet returns errors in the console.
- How can I verify the accounts of new users who have not activated their account yet?
- Why can't I impersonate a user I've just created?
Resolution
- In the past you were able to select "Impersonate User" for a user not yet activated, however, this was an unintended bug. (LPD-1476)
- The expected behavior is as such: an account needs to be considered “active” to be impersonated, and an account is not marked as “active” until a user logs in at least once and accepts the Terms of Service.
