I am a Professional Plus/Administrator in my organization and I create web maps and apps for others to view and edit. I have to walk my users through using these tools using step-by-step instructions.
Due to my credentials, what I see is not what my users see, which can lead to instructions that aren't as clear as what they could be. I frequently say, "It won't look exactly like this but if you see [this button], click it."
What would be nice is a function where I could toggle to "View as [different user/role type]" so I could more succinctly provide instructions without having to ask my user to test while screensharing or create another user account and log out/in each time I wanted to see the different view.
Popular request, for good reason.
Here are a couple of the earlier requests that I could find (Unfortunately, there are almost 600 matches for a post containing "View as" in this board, and I'm not combing through 60 pages of results to find more than these haha)
View-as setting for creators/administrators - Esri Community
ArcGIS Online/Portal View Item as User Option - Esri Community
Ability for an Admin to view content as different role before sharing
Thank you for this list! I tried looking it up really quick, but I apparently didn't use the correct key words.
