  To implement impersonation (LoginAsThisUser) from your custom tenants or users page in an ABP-based Angular application, you should use the built-in impersonation API provided by the ABP Account Module. This is the same mechanism used in the default Users and Tenants management pages.

  Here’s how you can achieve this:

  1. Enable Impersonation Permissions

     • Ensure the current user has the required permissions: AbpIdentity.Users.Impersonation for user impersonation and Saas.Tenants.Impersonation for tenant impersonation.

  2. Call the Impersonation API

     • Use the following endpoints from your Angular code:
       • For user impersonation:
         POST /api/account/impersonation
       • For tenant impersonation:
         POST /api/account/impersonation/tenant
     • The payload should include the target user or tenant ID.

  3. Redirect to the Impersonation URL

     • The API returns a URL. Redirect the browser to this URL to start the impersonation session.

  Example (User Impersonation in Angular):

  // In your Angular service/component
  this.http.post<{ url: string }>(
    '/api/account/impersonation',
    { userId: targetUserId, tenantId: targetTenantId } // tenantId is optional
  ).subscribe(response => {
    window.location.href = response.url; // Redirect to impersonation URL
  });
  

  Example (Tenant Impersonation in Angular):

  this.http.post<{ url: string }>(
    '/api/account/impersonation/tenant',
    { tenantId: targetTenantId }
  ).subscribe(response => {
    window.location.href = response.url;
  });
  

  4. UI Integration
     • Add the "LoginAsThisUser" or "LoginAsTenant" action in your custom page.
     • On click, call the above API and redirect as shown.

  Note:

  • The impersonation feature is only available if you are using the ABP Account Module and have the necessary permissions.
  • The impersonation session can be ended by logging out, which will return you to the original user session.

  The method this.impersonate() is referenced but not included in your screenshot.

  Hey

  I don't seem to understand where that this.impersonate is coming from, getting an error Property 'impersonate' does not exist on type 'ImpersonationService'. Do you want me to remove that line? How is that going work.

  Thank you

  hi

  Can you share your code?

  Have you injected ImpersonationService into your component/service?

  Thanks.

  this is my ImpersonationService

  

  and this is our custom users component where we trigger impersonateUser from the custom grid template which gives userId of the user we want to impersonate as a parameter, and also we have injected the custom ImpersonationService into our custom users component to access the methods from ImpersonationService.

  hi

  The ImpersonationService is an ABP service. You can inject it, no need to create ImpersonationService class.

  import { ImpersonationService } from '@volo/abp.commercial.ng.ui/config';

  Thanks,
