Postgres SQL on AWS RDS how to grant permission for schema, select on tables to user












1














I have logged in as superuser and created a readonly user.



When I run grant command, it says that schema does not exists



I am logging in as root:



sql -h myhost_name -U root -d postgres -W

grant usage on schema autorsid to readonly ;
ERROR: schema "autorsid" does not exist


while schema does exists but schema owner is not root.



Isn't when you are superuser, we should be able to grant permissions for all database/schema/tables etc.

  • Does the schema exist in the "postgres" database, or does it exist in some other database in the same cluster? Not even superusers can cross database boundaries.

  • I can grant permission when I connect to user who owns schema ( schema owner) but not when I am connected to superuser. So what exactly is superuser in Postgres, I need something to sqlplus / as sysdba or sys user in oracle which can grant all kind of priviliges.
