REVOKE (view)

Revokes privileges on a view from users and roles.

Revokes privileges on a view from users and roles.

Syntax

REVOKE [ GRANT OPTION FOR ] { privilege[,...] | ALL [ PRIVILEGES ] }
   ON [[database.]schema.]view[,...]
   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.

privilege
One of the following:

  • SELECT: Query the specified views.

  • ALTER: Modify a view's DDL with ALTER VIEW

  • DROP: Drop this view with DROP VIEW.

ALL PRIVILEGES
Revokes all privileges that pertain to views 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

Database and schema. The default schema is public. If you specify a database, it must be the current database.

view
The view on which to revoke privileges.
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.

Examples

Revoke SELECT privileges from user Joe on view test_view.

=> REVOKE SELECT ON test_view FROM Joe;
REVOKE PRIVILEGE
