Switching Roles (by a Delegated Party)

When an account establishes a trust relationship between itself and your account, you become a delegated party. You and all the users you have authorized can switch to the delegating account and manage resources under the account based on assigned permissions.

Prerequisites

  • A trust relationship has been established between another account and your account.

  • You have obtained the name of the delegating account and the agency name.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the system as the user created in 3 of Assigning Permissions to a User (by a Delegated Party).

    Note

    The user created in 3 of Assigning Permissions to a User (by a Delegated Party) can switch roles to manage resources for the delegating party.

  2. Point to the domain name in the upper right corner of the page and choose Switch Role.

  3. On the Switch Role page, enter the domain name of the delegating party.

    Note

    If an agency other than the agencies created by the delegating party is displayed, it indicates that you do not have access permissions. Select the correct agency in the Agency Name drop-down list.

  4. Click OK to switch to the delegating account.
