Is this correct way of ordering GCMS notes using Canadian friends details?

I have a friend of friend in Canada and was thinking of ordering GCMS through his details.
Before I do it just wanted to get confirmation on the steps I found in this forum.
1) Go to http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/atip/requests-personal.asp and get IMM 5744 form. Print it, fill it and scan it.
2) From above page itself click on 'Apply Online' button, it will take you to- https://atip-aiprp.apps.gc.ca/atip/.
3) Fill the details with "Access to information act" selected and not "Privacy Act". Upload your consent copy, pay $5.

Questions:
1) Are above steps correct?
2) While filling the application, for following questions what is the correct response
Client ID Number (####-####) - If this is UCI number I don't think I have any, I could not find any on my AOR letter. Is it ok to keep this blank?
What type of record would you like to request? -Is it Permanent Residence?
File Number(s) - This is a required field its hep text says "Your immigration file number can be found on the IRCC document or letter." but I don'yt think I have this number. Is it my express entry number?
3) Anything more that I am missing?

1. Yes
2. a. I think so
b. Yes, permanent residence
c. Yes, you can use your Express Entry number, it should be the same as the PR application, if you check your table of ongoing applications in your MyCIC account

3. Also upload proof of your friend of a friend's status in Canada (passport, PR card, etc.)
