How do I act as a user in the Parent app on my Android device as an admin?
If you are an admin, you can act as an observer in the Parent app and take any action in the app as if you were the observer. Only account-level users with the Act as users account permission can act as other users. This permission does not apply to sub-account admins.
In order to act as a user, you must log in to the app using your admin credentials.
Act as User

Tap the Act as User link.
Note: If the Act as User link is not available in your User Menu, you do not have the permission to perform this action.
Enter User ID

View the domain in the Domain field [1]. It will already be populated for you.
In the User ID field [2], enter the Canvas ID number for the user. Then tap the Act as User button [3].
Note: The user's Canvas ID can be found as part of the user's URL in the web version of Canvas. Make sure you have the user's ID associated with the correct Canvas URL
