GRANT role#
Synopsis#
GRANT role_name [, ...]
TO ( user | USER user_name | ROLE role_name) [, ...]
[ GRANTED BY ( user | USER user | ROLE role | CURRENT_USER | CURRENT_ROLE ) ]
[ WITH ADMIN OPTION ]
[ IN catalog ]
Description#
Grants the specified role(s) to the specified principal(s).
If the WITH ADMIN OPTION clause is specified, the role(s) are granted
to the users with GRANT option.
For the GRANT statement for roles to succeed, the user executing it either should
be the role admin or should possess the GRANT option for the given role.
The optional GRANTED BY clause causes the role(s) to be granted with
the specified principal as a grantor. If the GRANTED BY clause is not
specified, the roles are granted with the current user as a grantor.
The optional IN catalog clause grants the roles in a catalog as opposed
to a system roles.
Examples#
Grant role bar to user foo
GRANT bar TO USER foo;
Grant roles bar and foo to user baz and role qux with admin option
GRANT bar, foo TO USER baz, ROLE qux WITH ADMIN OPTION;
Limitations#
Some connectors do not support role management. See connector documentation for more details.
