The authority to represent someone else.

In Redstone Portal, Redstone users have the privilege to proxy other users in their list. By doing so, users can function on behalf of another.

**Note:**

- Proxying other users is based on Top-down hierarchy, making Redstone Admin the highest.

BELOW ARE THE METHODS TO PROXY USERS:

1. ### USERS TAB


Here, you will see a list of all the users.

Find the name of the user you want to proxy


You may search the role of the user with the name of user/company you want to proxy.
