Testing as Another User

We often come across instances where the SDjob or flow is being run as another user. Fortunately, we can minimize in-depth testing to focus on the document generation.

Enable Let admins debug flows as other users

This option will enable the user the ability debug flows as other users.

1. Navigate to Setup
2. Type ‘Process Automation Settings’ in the quick find.
3. In Process Automation Settings, enable the option: Let admins debug flows as other users

You may want to ask clients before proceeding for confirmation the option can be enabled.

Create a simple flow

This portion is dependent on how the user is leveraging our product. If the user is creating SDjob records, leverage the flow to create an SDJob record.

Debug the flow

If the organization wide setting is checked, System admins will have the option Run flow as another user. This can be done directly in the flow itself.

1. Open the simple flow.
2. Click the Debug button
3. Check the box Run flow as another user
4. Run the flow.

If the flow is kicked off as the other user, the SDJob will be created as the other user, also. This also works on users that are part of the experience cloud.
