Remarks

  • priv_level - privilege level

  • priv_type - privilege type

  • user_or_role: One or more user attributes or a role attribute. The @'host_name' part is optional. If a hostname is not specified, @'%' will be appended to the user string. For example, 'demo-user' is equivalent to 'demo-user'@'%'.The '%' wildcard matches any hostname. user and host_name need not be quoted if they are legal as unquoted identifiers. Quotes must be used if a host_name string contains wildcard characters (such as %), or a user string contains special characters (such as space or -) or is a restricted keyword.

  • This command can be run on any SingleStore Helios node.

  • This command causes implicit commits. Refer to COMMIT for more information.

  • GRANT OPTION must be revoked separately from any other privileges.

  • The REVOKE command holds a global lock on the cluster until the processing of the command is completed. See Workspace Level Locks for more info.

  • A user is granted the USAGE privilege by default. This privilege cannot be removed by using REVOKE [ALL]. The USAGEprivilege is automatically removed when the user is dropped.

  • Refer to the Permission Matrix for the required permission.

Examples

REVOKE INSERT ON *.* FROM 'user';
REVOKE ALL PRIVILEGES, GRANT OPTION FROM 'user';
REVOKE SELECT ON dbTable FROM ROLE 'r1';
