SQL GRANT is a command used to provide access or privileges on the database objects to the users.
The Syntax for the GRANT command is:
GRANT privilege_name
ON object_name
TO {user_name |PUBLIC |role_name}
[WITH GRANT OPTION];
- privilege_name is the access right or privilege granted to the user. Some of the access rights are ALL, EXECUTE, and SELECT.
- object_name is the name of an database object like TABLE, VIEW, STORED PROC and SEQUENCE.
- user_name is the name of the user to whom an access right is being granted.
- user_name is the name of the user to whom an access right is being granted.
- PUBLIC is used to grant access rights to all users.
- ROLES are a set of privileges grouped together.
- WITH GRANT OPTION - allows a user to grant access rights to other users.
