PowerApps Impersonate user

Hi all,

 

I would like to get clarity on Impersonation in Power Apps. 

 - Is it possible to Impersonate user in Power Apps? (My scenario:  I have created a canvas app with User1 account(per user plan), that loads data from the sql(cloud). Can User2(no premium account) use User1(having per userplan) account as impersonation to see the data?)

I figured,we can use Power Automate for impersonation. I am trying to test the same in Power Apps.

 

Appreciate your response!

    No you cannot impersonate another user in Power Apps.  Power Apps has no ability for elevating user privilege through impersonation.  Each user that runs the app must have a premium license if the app uses a premium connection.
