Cause


As per system design when you proxy as a user, you arrive at the homepage initially and as the homepage access permission is not granted, this prevents the proxy from working and causes the error to appear.

Resolution


To resolve the error, grant "Home Page Tab" proxy access to the effected user:

  1. Admin Center > Proxy Management;
  2. Select the users affected and grant the Home Page Tab;
  3. Save.
