Hello,
I am trying to find a way to use our ThoughtSpot's instance's Playground to impersonate other users without writing code, for the purpose of running quick test and troubleshooting. I am the admin and have the secret key therefore I can use trusted auth to obtain access token for other users. Here are the steps I tried:
1. Use the Playground's auth token APIs (Restful V2, full access token or custom token APIs) to obtain a particular user's token.
2. Use any background API such as search Data API, and copy the token from step 1 in the Playground's "Authentication -> Bearer Auth -> Access Token" section to call the API. It retuned correct data meaning this token works.
3. Go to Embed SDK Playground, select to embed a Liveboard. The code has one section about authentication in the "init" block:
getAuthToken: getTokenService
I modified this line by hard-code the token value:
getAuthToken: JSON.stringify({"token":"<the access token string from step 1>"})
when run this, it gets "Not Logged In" error at the embedding area, meaning the auth was not successful.
Could you let me know the correct step/syntax to make the above work?
Thank you!
