REVOKE (Table)

Revokes privileges on a table from a user.

In a database with trust authentication, the GRANT and REVOKE statements appear to work as expected but have no actual effect on the security of the database.

Syntax

REVOKE [ GRANT OPTION FOR ]

{ { SELECT | INSERT | UPDATE | DELETE | REFERENCES } [,...]

| ALL [ PRIVILEGES ]

}

ON [ TABLE ] tablename [, ...]

FROM { username | PUBLIC } [, ...]

Semantics

 

GRANT OPTION FOR

revokes the grant option for the privilege, not the privilege itself. If omitted, revokes both the privilege and the grant option.

SELECT

See GRANT (Table).

INSERT

UPDATE

DELETE

REFERENCES

ALL

PRIVILEGES

tablename

username

PUBLIC
