Description

To revoke access privileges for users to tables. The REVOKE statement can only remove existing user privileges given with the GRANT statement. To revoke privileges you must be the owner of the table or have already been granted ALTER privileges.


Keywords Description
ALL All privileges are revoked.
SELECT The ability to name any column in a SELECT statement. The privilege can be restricted to one or more columns by listing them.
UPDATE The ability to name any column in an UPDATE statement. The privilege can be restricted to one or more columns by listing them.
INSERT The ability to INSERT rows into the table.
DELETE The ability to DELETE rows from the table.
ALTER The data type to be stored in that column, and the applicable length or precision.
READ ONLY The ability to read from any column in a SELECT statement. The privilege can be restricted to one or more columns by listing them.
database The name of the database to which the table belongs. Databases in Recital are implemented as directories containing files that correspond to the tables and associated files in the database. Operating System file protection can be applied individually to the files for added security. The directory is a sub-directory of the Recital data directory. The environment variable / symbol DB_DATADIR points to the current Recital data directory and can be queried using the GETENV() function. Files from other directories can be added to the database using the ADD TABLE command or via the database catalog and SET AUTOCATALOG functionality. The '!' character must be included between the database name and the table name.
table The name of the table from which to revoke the privileges.
user The user access control string that will be revoked from the privilege. User access control strings are defined by the operating system.
group The group access control string that will be revoked the privilege. Group access control strings are defined by the operating system.
PUBLIC All users and groups will be revoked privileges


Example

// Revoke update privilege for columns lastname and firstname and insert on the table
REVOKE UPDATE (lastname, firstname) INSERT;
  ON customer;
  FROM '[20,100]'
 
// Grant all privileges to all users
REVOKE ALL;
  ON test;
  FROM PUBLIC
