How to identify the logged in user id, when the User has logged in as another User

Hi,

I have 2 users A and B. User A has Admin profile and so has the option to login as other users.

Now lets say, User A logged into the system and logged in as User B. 
Now, when I try to get the loggen in user Id using Userinfo.getUserId() or any other apex method, I get the User B record id. 

Is there a way, I can get the actual logged user i.e., User A record Id

Hi Arun,

UserInfo.getUserId() - returns the current User Id

User Usr = new User();
Usr = [SELECT Phone, Id FROM User WHERE Id = : UserInfo.getUserId()];

the above code will return the current user's Phone and Id who execute this code.

go through the below links:

Hi Rockzz,

Thanks for your reply. 

If we try Userinfo.getUserId(), it just returns the User B record id. But what I want is the User A record id.

I don't think you can access that information programatically via Apex.

The only location where this is available to my knowledge is in the Audit Log, which you can download as a CSV file, but can't get in Apex / Visualforce.

Hi Arun,
you an try below option to find this manually,

There is the Setup Audit Trail which tells you who logged in as another person.
Setup > Security Controls > View Setup Audit Trail
