Thread: 101 Grants and Access Right Table/View

101 Grants and Access Right Table/View

From
"Wong, Kam Fook (TR Technology)"
Date:

I have a simple question for “access rights” view or table within Postgres. 

Here is my grant query:

GRANT USAGE ON SCHEMA abc TO abc_user;

GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE ON ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA abc TO abc_user;

GRANT ALL ON ALL SEQUENCES IN SCHEMA abc TO abc_user;

GRANT EXECUTE ON ALL ROUTINES IN SCHEMA abc TO abc_user;

But I can’t find a view/table that is associated with the above grants?  The view/table below doesn’t shown the above granted rights.

 

select * from information_schema.role_table_grants;

select * from information_schema.usage_privileges


Thank you

Those commands would simply apply the grants to any existing objects
in the given schema, so you'd have to look at such objects to see
the effects.  If there are none, nothing happens.

You might be looking for ALTER DEFAULT PRIVILEGES?

Usename = postgres is the grantor.  The object owner is flyway.  I tried the grants on both postgres user and flyway user and the result is the same.

Tom,

These are existing objects/tables.  So I assume after the grants were run,  the  information_schema.role_table_grants
andinformation_schema.usage_privileges shouldn't be blank right/now rows return? 

Thank you
Kam

Maybe.  I believe both of those views will only show information about
grants where you (the user reading the view) are grantor or grantee.
You've not provided any details about your test setup ...
