    'Admin' Member authentication - log in without password

    Greetings,

    I need to implement an 'admin' authentication for members. This means it would allow our company's agents to log in as a member without using their password. This would essentially allow them to look at the member area without their password.

    Is there any way to do this with the default member authentication mechanism in 7.6.3, or would it require me to create a custom Identity implementation?

    Any insight would be appreciated.

    I should add that the routes for this feature would only be accessible to a backoffice user.

    Thanks!

    Like most things in Umbraco Authentication can be extended. Check out this recent presentation for some tips: https://github.com/fraabye/cg17presentation/blob/master/External%20Authentication%20and%20sign-on%20scenarios%20with%20Umbraco.pdf

    Yeah, I'm aware that I could write my own identity implementation, but I was hoping to find a solution that would not require me to, seeing as how I don't need a custom user store. I'm fine with the default, except for this one piece of functionality.
