Unable to access impersonation and user roles after dev cloning

[NikhilG32113509]

Hello Community,

We are in the process of upgrading our ServiceNow instance to Xanadu. As part of the upgrade, we recently performed a development environment cloning.

Post-cloning, we have encountered issues accessing interface dialogs such as impersonating users and managing user roles. These functionalities appear to be unresponsive.

Has anyone faced similar issues during an upgrade or cloning process? Any guidance or recommendations to resolve this would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your support!

Regards

Nikhil

Hi @NikhilG32113509 

Cloning is essentially like a copy-paste from production to development. Please check (I know it’s not best practice, but check if the user is able to impersonate in production). Provide the role for a limited period and just verify. It looks like some data might have been overridden, or an ACL that was disabled in production might have been applied in development. You can log a case with Now Support.

Hi Tera Patron,

Thank you for your assistance, our prod instance is working as expected along with the impersonation and user roles and test instance as well. A high-level ticket has been created with SNOW support. Awaiting for them to reciprocate.

Hi @NikhilG32113509 

It's Not SNOW, its SN or ServiceNow. Can you provide some screesnhot to understand more about your issue.

I don't think it's an issue with cloning.

What's the exact issue?

you are not able to impersonate some users?
