Thread: Sequence and Schema permissions information schema

Sequence and Schema permissions information schema

From
hartrc
Date:
PostgreSQL v9.1.6

Are sequence and schema permissions documented anywhere in the information
schema. I've looked through documentation and the information_schema itself
but have had no luck. I noticed in the 9.2 documentation there is a
reference to 'sequences' in information_schema.usage_privileges. I also
noticed there is a has_schema_privilege and has_sequence_privilege function
so I'm assuming this data is somewhere?

Thanks
Rob

In 9.1, I don't believe so.  According to the GRANT reference page,
which I think is accurate, privileges on schemas are a PG extension not
found in the SQL standard; so of course the standard's views wouldn't
have anyplace to expose that information.  As for the sequence
situation, you might find the commentary and documentation changes in
this 9.2 commit of interest:
