I want to check whether any user have permission or not to download any file. I have product id and user id so How I can check?

I have explored a lot on google and in woocommerce documentation but didn’t find any solution.

Any help?

Here is the process to get downloadable order items information that you can use in any function or hooked function in your php files:

// Get all current customer orders
$customer_orders = wc_get_orders( $args = array(
    'limit'       => -1,
    'customer_id' => get_current_user_id(), // The current user id
    'status'      => array_keys(wc_get_order_statuses()),
) );

// The different loops to get the downloadable products bought by this user
if ( ! empty($customer_orders) ){
    // Loop through customer orders
    foreach ( $customer_orders as $order){
        // Check if current order has available downloadable items (permitted)
        if( $order->has_downloadable_item() && $order->is_paid() && $order->is_download_permitted() ){
            // Loop through order items with downloadable items
            foreach( $order->get_items() as $item ){
                $product_id = $item->get_product_id(); // product ID

                // Get the downloadbles files (array):
                $downloads = $item->get_item_downloads();
                if( ! empty( $downloads ) ) {
                    // Loop through downloads
                    foreach( $downloads as $download_id => $download ) {
                        // Output formatted download name and link
                        echo '<p>' . $download['name'] . ' <a href="' . $download['download_url'] . '">' . __("Download link") . '</a></p>';
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

Code goes in any php file of your active child theme (or active theme). Tested and works.
