Usage

1. Add Table action

Open the resource where you want the impersonate action to appear. This is generally going to be your UserResource class.

Go down to the table method. Inside actions or prependActions add ImpersonateAction::make as a new action for the table. Your class should look like this:

namespace App\Filament\Resources;

use Filament\Resources\Resource;
use XliteDev\FilamentImpersonate\Actions\ImpersonateAction; // <---

class UserResource extends Resource {
    // ...

    public static function table(Table $table)
    {
        return $table
            ->columns([
                // ...
            ])
            ->actions([
                ImpersonateAction::make(), // <--- 
                // ...
            ]);
    }

You should now see an action icon next to each user in your Filament UserResource list:

When you click on the impersonate icon you will be logged in as that user, and redirected to your main app. You will see the impersonation banner at the top of the page, with a button to leave and return to Filament:

2. Add Page action

Open EditUser or ViewUser class, where you want the impersonate action to appear.

Go down to the getActions method and add ImpersonateAction::make as a new action for the page. Your class should look like this:

namespace App\Filament\Resources;

use Filament\Resources\Resource;
use XliteDev\FilamentImpersonate\Actions\ImpersonateAction; // <---

class EditUser extends ViewRecord
{
    // ...

    protected function getActions(): array
    {
        return [
            ImpersonateAction::make()->record($this->getRecord()), // <---
            // ...
        ];
    }

You should now see an action icon on the EditUser or ViewUser page:

Configuration

You can publish the config file with:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="filament-impersonate-config"

This is the contents of the published config file:

return [

    // This is the guard used when logging in as the impersonated user.
    'guard' => env('FILAMENT_IMPERSONATE_GUARD', 'web'),

    // After impersonating this is where we'll redirect you to.
    'redirect_to' => env('FILAMENT_IMPERSONATE_REDIRECT', '/'),

    // We wire up a route for the "leave" button. You can change the middleware stack here if needed.
    'leave_middlewares' => [
        env('FILAMENT_IMPERSONATE_LEAVE_MIDDLEWARE', 'web'),
    ],

    'banner' => [
        // Currently supports 'dark' and 'light'.
        'style' => env('FILAMENT_IMPERSONATE_BANNER_STYLE', 'dark'),

        // Turn this off if you want `absolute` positioning, so the banner scrolls out of view
        'fixed' => env('FILAMENT_IMPERSONATE_BANNER_FIXED', true),

        // Currently supports 'top' and 'bottom'.
        'position' => env('FILAMENT_IMPERSONATE_BANNER_POSITION', 'top'),
    ],
];

Authorization

By default, only Filament admins can impersonate other users. You can control this by adding a canImpersonate method to your FilamentUser class:

class User implements FilamentUser {
    
    public function canImpersonate()
    {
        return true;
    }
    
}

You can also control which targets can be impersonated. Just add a canBeImpersonated method to the user class with whatever logic you need:

class User {

    public function canBeImpersonated()
    {
        // Let's prevent impersonating other users at our own company
        return !Str::endsWith($this->email, '@mycorp.com');
    }
    
}

Customizing the banner

You can publish the views using

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="filament-impersonate-views"

The blade component has a few options you can customize.

Style

The banner is dark by default, you can set this to light:

<x-filament-impersonate::banner style='light'/>

Display name

The banner will show the name of the impersonated user, assuming there is a name attribute. You can customize this if needed:

<x-filament-impersonate::banner :display='auth()->user()->email'/>

composer test
