Posted on by 55

There is a user who dont hv permission to access custom entity "tool"

I made a ribbon button on Account form

when we click on that button, canvas page will open

in that canvas page their is a gallery in which it shows file type column with attachments

look something like as shown in the Image

1st gallery shows notes attachments

2nd gallery is showing file download field(data type= file)

user with no permission to access Tool entity is not able to see this canvas page

we want to make that user to be able to see and download file from this canvas page using web api or plugin.

So how can I Impersonate user to open Canvas Page?

Thank you any kind of help is appreciated.
