Managing Permissions

Updated on 2024-04-01 GMT+08:00

Permission Levels

  • User level (supported)
  • Database level (supported)
  • Table level (supported)
  • Column level (not supported)
  • Subprogram level (not supported)
  • Global level (not supported)

Permission Types

DDM supports different permission types by using the GRANT statement.

Permission Type

Description

ALL

All permissions

DROP

Deleting a table

INDEX

Creating/Deleting an index

ALTER

Executing ALTER statements

CREATE

Creating a table

SELECT

Reading table data

INSERT

Inserting data to a table

UPDATE

Updating data in a table

GRANT

Granting permissions to users

REVOKE

Deleting a user permission

SET

Setting user's passwords

FILE

Uploading database permissions from a file

CREATE USER

Creating a user

Precautions

  • Basic permissions of a DDM account can only be modified on the DDM console.
  • If a DDM account has table or database permissions on a schema, the schema will be displayed in the row where the account is located.
  • Users created by the CREATE USER statement support only user-level permissions.
  • If a DDM account has been associated with a schema, deleting this schema or tables in it does not affect the permissions assigned to the account.
  • You can execute the GRANT statement to assign permissions to a DDM account. The following is an example statement:
    grant grant option on {user-level, database-level, and table-level} to DDM account
  • Permissions cannot be assigned to a DDM account unless the account is associated with a schema.

Permission Operations

NOTICE:

SHOW GRANTS is supported in versions in 3.0.2 or later. Other functions are available in versions 2.4.1.4 or later.

CREATE USER

Syntax:

CREATE USER username IDENTIFIED BY 'auth#string'

Example: Creating an account (username: Jenny; password: xxxxxx)

CREATE USER Jenny IDENTIFIED BY 'xxxxxx';
NOTE:

Each username and password must meet the corresponding requirements.

DROP USER

Syntax:

DROP USER username

Example: Removing user Jenny

DROP USER Jenny;

SET PASSWORD

Syntax:

SET PASSWORD FOR 'username'@'%' = 'auth_string'
NOTE:

To be compatible with the MySQL syntax, the username must be in the format of 'username'@' %'.

Example: Changing the password of Jenny to xxxxxx

SET PASSWORD FOR 'Jenny'@'%' = 'xxxxxx'

GRANT

Syntax:
GRANT    
   priv_type[, priv_type] ...     
   ON priv_level     
   TO user [auth_option] 
   priv_level: {    
       | *.*    
       | db_name.*    
       | db_name.tbl_name      
       | tbl_name}
   ​auth_option: {        
       IDENTIFIED BY 'auth#string'
}
NOTE:

If a GRANT statement provides no accounts and does not specify IDENTIFIED BY, a message No account found will be returned. If IDENTIFIED BY is specified, an account will be created accordingly and permissions will be granted to it.

GRANT ALL [PRIVILEGES] can be used to assign table-, user-, and database-level permissions.

Example 1: Create a user-level account with all permissions. The username is Mike.

Method 1: Create an account and then grant permissions to it.

CREATE USER Mike IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
GRANT SELECT, INSERT ON *.* to Mike;

Method 2: Execute one SQL statement to create an account and grant it permissions.

GRANT SELECT, INSERT ON *.* to Mike IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

Example 2: Create a database-level account with all permissions. Create account david in database testdb and grant the SELECT permissions of database testdb to the account.

Method 1: Create an account and then grant permissions to it.

CREATE USER david IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
GRANT SELECT ON testdb.* to david;

Method 2: Execute one SQL statement to create an account and grant it permissions.

GRANT SELECT ON testdb.* to david IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

Example 3: Create a table-level account with all permissions. Create account hanson in database testdb and grant all permissions of table testdb.employees to the account.

GRANT  ALL PRIVILEGES ON testdb.employees to hanson IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

REVOKE

Syntax:

REVOKE    
    priv_type [, priv_type] ...   
    ON priv_level FROM user​;

Example: Deleting CREATE, DROP, and INDEX permissions of user hanson on table testdb.emp.

REVOKE CREATE,DROP,INDEX ON testdb.emp FROM hanson;
NOTE:

REVOKE can delete actions at each permission level of an account. The permission level is specified by priv_level.

SHOW GRANTS

Syntax:

SHOW GRANTS FOR user;

Example 1: Querying user permissions with any of the following statements:

SHOW GRANTS;
SHOW GRANTS FOR CURRENT_USER;
SHOW GRANTS FOR CURRENT_USER();

Example 2: Querying other permissions. This operation can be performed only when the current user can grant user-level permissions.

mysql> show grants for david;
+-----------------------------+
|Grants for david            |
+-----------------------------+
|GRANT USAGE ON *.* TO david |
+-----------------------------+
