Hi guys,

I am working on a project that combines Impersonation, Assortments and Extranet.

Nothing I have not done before.

However, this time I have noticed a very strange behavior of the assortment. The Current user in the frontend seems to get in conflict with the Extranet user which is causing an Assortment Permission problem.

You can see for yourself in this video: https://www.screencast.com/t/Rdn0fqvAfi

The solution is 9.2.17

Any idea?

Thanks,
Adrian

Hi Adrian,

Not sure what the "assortment permission problem" is. Can you elaborate?
I don't see a video, just an image. Can you try to share the video again?

Best regards,
Morten

Hi Morten,

I am sorry, I copied the wrong link.

Here is the video: https://www.screencast.com/t/T2QjRyBIjsG

It is very hard to describe the behavior. My hope is the video will clarify it.

What I think it is happening, is that the assortment takes into consideration the Extranet account and not the Front-end account.

This happend when the admin is logged in backend and performs impersonation on front-end.

I hope this helps.

Thanks,

Adrian

Hi Adrian

When you choose logout from backend, you abondon your session and kill everything. So you have to login again in the frontend.

Hi Nicolai,

Right. That should have been obvious.

Thank you,
Adrian
