  1. Maintaining multiple sessions could be cumbersome and lead to errors.

  2. Adding prefix to routes could be extra work.

Solution 2:

Changes references like userid roles and other necessary things in existing session and portal automatically starts to use thatOnce switch profile is initiated fetch the managed user profile details. Replace the user data in session keeping the parent token as it is.

...

Things to reinitialise -

  • Telemetry

  • User profile

  • Update UserId in elements in indeindex.html

Pros:

  1. Simple to do.

Cons:

  1. Increasing size of session data.

  2. Managing session data each time when profile is switched.

  3. Session ID remains same for user and managed user profile

Solution 3:

Image Removed

Things to reinitialise -

  • Telemetry

  • User profile

  • Update UserId in elements in index.html

Challenges :

...

Notes -

2 user ID current user and switching user id should be send.

verifying user id after fetching details

Things to discuss -

...

storing extra session id and mapping it with user ID

...

Cassandra TTL might delete the other mapped data

...

fetch user details should give details of parent if parent exists

...

Solution 3:

Image Added

Things to reinitialise -

  • Telemetry

  • User profile

  • Update UserId and session ID in elements in index.html

Challenges :

  • Securing switch user API as it can generate token/login any user.

  • Securing API for mobile as mobile will generate token from portal

Notes -

  • 2 user ID current user and switching user id should be send.

  • Verifying user id after fetching details

Things to discuss -

  • Storing session id and mapping it with User Id in cassandra (where portal store sessions)

  • Cassandra TTL might delete the other mapped data (not sure NOC team says they dont add explicit TTL currently).

  • Fetch user details should give details of parent if parent exists

  • How to do in mobile

  • How mobile will support offline swtich (as switch requires to generate token)

Conclusion

  • Team to follow Solution 2.

  • Parent’s token will be used and child’s token will not be generated.

  • Session data to be updated with child user profile data. Just changing the session data is required no need to change cookie and generate new session.

  • Re initialisation of telemetry server and user service.
