GRANT (Sequence)

Grants sequence privileges to users and roles.

Syntax

GRANT { privilege[,…] | ALL [ PRIVILEGES ] [ EXTEND ] }
   ON { 
     SEQUENCE [[database.]schema.]sequence[,…] 
     | ALL SEQUENCES IN SCHEMA [database.]schema[,…] }
   TO grantee[,…] 
   [ WITH GRANT OPTION ]

Parameters

privilege

The following privileges are valid for sequences:
ALL [PRIVILEGES][EXTEND]

Grants all sequence privileges that also belong to the grantor. Grantors cannot grant privileges that they themselves lack

You can qualify ALL with two optional keywords:

  • PRIVILEGES conforms with the SQL standard.
  • EXTEND extends the semantics of ALL to include ALTER and DROP privileges. An unqualified ALL excludes these two privileges. This option enables backward compatibility with GRANT ALL usage in pre-9.2.1 Vertica releases.
[database.]schema

Specifies a schema, by default public. If schema is any schema other than public, you must supply the schema name. For example:

myschema.thisDbObject

If you specify a database, it must be the current database.
SEQUENCE sequence

Specifies the sequence on which to grant privileges.

ALL SEQUENCES IN SCHEMA schema

Grants the specified privileges on all sequences in schema schema.
grantee

Specifies who is granted privileges, one of the following:
WITH GRANT OPTION

Gives grantee the privilege to grant the same privileges to other users or roles, and also revoke them. For details, see Granting Privileges in the Administrator's Guide.

Privileges

Non-superuser: USAGE on the schema and one of the following:

  • Owner
  • Privileges grantee given the option (WITH GRANT OPTION) of granting privileges to other users or roles.

Examples

This example shows how to grant user Joe all privileges on sequence my_seq.

=> CREATE SEQUENCE my_seq START 100;
CREATE SEQUENCE
=> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON SEQUENCE my_seq TO Joe;
GRANT PRIVILEGE
