    Hi,

    It depends from the plugin which adds such action link, if it uses something special. Usually, similar links under user row are protected by ‘edit_users’ WordPress built-in capability.

    What plugin adds ‘View As’ link in your case?

    According to the quick look at the older version 1.2.1 source code of BuddyBoss plugin, ‘View As’ link is available to user in 2 cases:
    1) if he can ‘switch_users’ capability;
    2) if he has ‘edit_users’ capability and (has permission to) edit the selected user.
