Is it correct in TFS/TFS Aggregator setting true both "make-requests-on-behalf-of-others-permission" and "authentication autoImpersonate"?

Question

I'm using TFS 2017 update 1 on premises + TFS Aggregator 2.2.1. In order to properly use autoImpersonate set to true in TFSAggregator2.ServerPlugin.Policies, i.e.:

    <!--
    autoImpersonate false (default) use the TFS Service account, true the user requesting. (Optional)
    -->
    <authentication autoImpersonate="true" />

is it necessary to set the following permission to true for "Project Collection Valid Users" group? https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/docs/setup-admin/permissions#make-requests-on-behalf-of-others-permission

Make requests on behalf of others ▼

Can perform operations on behalf of other users or services. Only assign to service accounts.

Yes, you need to set the permission to true.

Besides, questions about general computing software are off-topic for Stack Overflow unless they directly involve tools used primarily for programming. Your could ask the question directly under the extension in marketplace or from GitHub.
