Eventsforce recommends using personal links for people in the database so users are not asked for a password when attempting to register, submit an abstract/award, or login as a reviewer.
Event managers may want to login as an attendee (or impersonate an attendee) to get a better understanding of what the end user sees. This can be useful for testing as well as troubleshooting.
Impersonating an individual in Eventsforce
The personal details page for a person in Eventsforce contains “Event Links” which are the personal links for that individual. An event manager can access these links by doing the following:
Go to the event in which the person exists
Go to Reports > Quick Search
Enter the email address of the person
Check the box to “Search all events”
Click the “i” icon to open the personal details page (the person icon can also be clicked from the ‘People > Registrations’ page)
In the ‘Event Links’ section, click on the relevant link (Registration, Amendment, Abstract submission, Abstract review, Award entry, Award judging)
Clicking the link will log you in as the attendee/submitter/reviewer
Note: The links available in the ‘Event Links’ panel will change based on the type of event (registration, abstracts, awards, etc).
