Explain impersonation, and when would you use impersonation?
Answer / Anurag Lohant
Impersonation in SharePoint refers to the act of a service or application running under the security context of another user. Impersonation allows code or applications to perform actions on behalf of another user while maintaining that user's permissions. This is useful when writing custom solutions that need to interact with SharePoint on behalf of end-users, as it ensures the correct permission levels are applied. For example, an impersonated solution can access a specific user's documents or perform actions on their behalf.
