I am working on multiple Umbraco Cloud sites simultaneously and need the backoffices open side by side for comparison. If I log into one using my cloud ID it kicks me out of the other. Is my only option to create some unique User IDs for each or is there a clever way to get around this?

works for me 🤷‍♂️ two v13 sites happily editing side-by-side if it really is an auth problem then using 2 different browsers should do the trick, or 2 different browsser profiles.. but as I said, I don't have this problem maybe you're being timed out?

Two different broswers / one of them in Incognito/private browsing works best IMO

It's definitely kicking me out instantly so I think @Nik may be right. I can use separate browser profiles as you suggest @Sebastiaan. Perhaps for longer term I may create unique account just for testing purposes.

different logins won't help with cookies overwriting each other.. but which umbraco version are you using? I am not seeing this at all. maybe this happens in v8 though

This happens for me with v13 sites all the time

This is 10.8.6 but I have seen this in V13 as well.

with umbracoId or "regular" logins?

Umbraco ID - But now you mention it I think also regular users too

Strange! I know it's easy for cookies to get mixed up when used on the same domain name (umbraco.io for example but.. I just can't repro).

Right now it's 10.8.6 using Umbraco ID running both sites off localhost. But I'll try separate browser profiles tommorow.

ah..I haven't tried localhost, was on the live sites

I probably should have mentioned that right at the start of my thread… doh!

all good! I guess because I'm using the Cloud subdomains (alias.euwest01.umbraco.io and alias2.euwest01.umbraco.io) the cookies are specific to those subdomains so it all works. you can't avoid it by using a different login in the same browser for localhost, the cookie is being set for your whole localhost - different browsers / broswer profiles is probably your best bet

This happens on Local Host because there's no distinction on port numbers... I'm just a FED so I'm not going to add any further comment to how stupid this is. XD
