REVOKE (Procedure)

Revokes procedure privileges from users and roles.

Syntax

REVOKE [ GRANT OPTION FOR ] { EXECUTE | ALL PRIVILEGES }
   ON PROCEDURE [[database.]schema.]procedure( [argument-list] )[,…]
   FROM grantee[,…]
   [ CASCADE ]

Parameters

GRANT OPTION FOR

Revokes the grant option for the specified privileges. Current privileges for grantees remain unaffected. If you omit this clause, Vertica revokes both the grant option and current privileges.
EXECUTE Revokes grantees ability to run the specified procedures.
ALL [PRIVILEGES]

Revokes all procedure privileges that also belong to the revoker. Users cannot revoke privileges that they themselves lack.

The optional keyword PRIVILEGES conforms with the SQL standard.
[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.
procedure

The target procedure.
argument-list

A comma-delimited list of procedure arguments, where each argument is specified as follows:

[argname] argtype

If the procedure is defined with no arguments, supply an empty argument list.
grantee Specifies whose privileges are revoked, one of the following:
CASCADE

If the target grantees have a grant option to extend the specified privileges to other users, CASCADE specifies to search for these users and revoke the privileges from them also.

Privileges

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