The SHOW USERS
statement lists the users for all databases.
Note:
Since the keywords ROLES
and USERS
can now be used interchangeably in SQL statements for enhanced PostgreSQL compatibility, SHOW USERS
is now an alias for SHOW ROLES
.
Synopsis
Required privileges
The user must have the SELECT
privilege on the system.users
and system.role_members
tables.
