Bookshelf v10.1.3.2: impersonateex() Method

Use this method to log on and impersonate the user in the SAWSessionService service. Similar to the impersonate method, but impersonateex can specify optional session parameters. This method is useful when you need to create sessions for multiple users and have only the administrator's name and password. You do not need to use the (logon) method if you use the impersonateex() method.
