Is there a way besides going to the System Logs mentioned in the below article to identify if the user who is viewing the form is being impersonated by another user?

So for example, if Beth Anglin is impersonating Abel Tuter and have viewed INCXXXXXXXX. Is there a way in getting Beth Anglin's Sys ID?

Hi @JanRaphaelC 

OOB apart from what you see, there is no other way, although you can always create a metric definition around it, but just curious what is the use case, that you want to track impersonations?

I have a requirement wherein if a fulfiller doesn't have an access to view the catalog item but impersonated another fulfiller, they still shouldn't be able to see the catalog item.

Hi @JanRaphaelC 

 

Impersonation means you are logging as other user from your instance, it will not change any thing else. Its like proxy from own machine. 

Rest as @JanRaphaelC  what you shared is the OOTB & available..
