Results

A new browser window opens and the storefront for the selected store launches in the browser. You are automatically logged in to the store with the same user credentials used in your current Management Center session. Since the store is launched in the same session as your current Management Center session, you can launch and view a store even when the store is in a closed state.

By default, the store launches using the input language specified for Management Center. If this language is not supported in the store, the store launches using the default language specified for the store.
