Re: Partition Creation Permissions

Ah, I didn't realize that was an option on the function.  They're already being created by a trigger (the table is partitioned on a foreign key, so partitions are created by a trigger on the referenced table); it sounds like I can just update that trigger function with `security definer`.

I've been trying to restrict permissions of some users in our system and noticed that `create table foo partition of bar for values from (x) to (y)` complains that I must be the owner of the table.  Is there another GRANT I can give to my user to allow creation and dropping of partitions without allowing them to drop the parent table?
 

I doubt it...might want to consider writing a security definer function that you can give them permission to run instead of having them do things directly.
