Please note, the token is only valid for a couple of minutes while displayed so this process needs to be efficiently executed.

Notes


It is not clear when Super Administrator privileges are active so one way to check is within the System module you will see a sub menu called "Toolbox". 

Super admin only stays active while your COINS session is active, if its deactivated you need to go through the steps again to gain access.
