Ultimate Guide for Magento 2 Login as Customer

Use the special button to login as any existing customer just in one click. Grant permissions to sub-admin users to login as customer, as well as monitor the login attempts on the special grid.

  • Fast login to any customer's account
  • View all login attempts in the log

Configuration

To adjust general module settings, navigate to Stores → Configuration → Amasty Extensions → Login as Customer.

Expand the General tab.

Open Customer`s Account in the New Tab - if set to `Yes`, the customer account page will be open in a new tab of your browser, otherwise, it will be open in a current tab.

Allow Selecting Store View to Login - if a customer accounts shared per website, for logging you will be able to choose only those store views of the website this customer is associated with.

Please note that this setting depends on the `Account Sharing Options` (Store - Configuration - Customers - Customer Configuration).

How to Login as Customer

To login as any existing customer, please, go to Customers → All Customers and select the required one from the grid. Then, click the Select link. In the dropdown, choose the Login as Customer option to proceed to the user's dashboard on the frontend.

Alternatively, you can select the required customer from the grid. Then, hit the Login as Customer button in the account to automatically login to the user's account.

When you have multiple store views the customer is assigned to, than you may need to select the required one to login.

On the grid you can see all login attempts with the detailed information about them.
