Re: [security-dev] Impersonation feature (was: Quickstarts)

To add to the list, I don't know if there's a feature for this...

But, is there a way to do impersonation of users? Essentially, one user/agent logs in and then becomes a different user without requiring the user password. We're seeing this for REST based server-to-server communication calls. I am extrapolating that I could do some sort of silentAuthentication like indicated in the doc on the TicketMonster-PicketLink example, but that piece of the code isn't visible on the product documentation page.

Thanks, Anil
