Assistance needed for the query execution in non-public schema
Hi Postgresql Team,
I'm trying to execute the below query using the below
psql 'host=cucmpsgsu0.postgres.database.azure.com port=5432 dbname=msshctd
user=shc_uadmin password=xxxxx sslmode=require
options=--search_path=shc_tty'
msshctd=> show search_path;
search_path
-------------
shc_tty
(1 row)
msshctd=> SELECT setval(pg_get_serial_sequence('mqa_flfo_cstr', 'id'),
coalesce(MAX(id), 1)) from mqa_flfo_cstr;
*ERROR: permission denied for sequence mqa_flfo_cstr_id_seq*
msshctd=> SELECT setval(pg_get_serial_sequence('mqa_ffp_nval', 'id'),
coalesce(MAX(id), 1)) from mqa_ffp_nval;
*ERROR: permission denied for sequence mqa_ffp_nval_id_seq*
msshctd=> \z mqa_flfo_cstr_id_seq

|

|
(1 row)
Above query executes fine when I try to execute as user *"pgddb_admin"(Super
User)*. but when I switch to shc_uadmin, I see a permission error. Above
I've included the permissions listed for both the users. I also tried to
set the alter permissions for one of the sequence for the shc_uadmin user
with the below
GRANT USAGE, ALTER ON SEQUENCE mqa_flfo_cstr_id_seq TO shc_uadmin;
*ERROR: unrecognized privilege type "alter" SQL state: 42601*
Is there any other way i can execute the queries, with user *"shc_uadmin"*
for the *setval()* to work properly without giving complete privileges same
as the owner *"pgddb_admin"* ? Any workaround/ alternate option which would
work here? Please assist

According to our documentation for setval():
"This function requires UPDATE privilege on the sequence."

Above query executes fine when I try to execute as user "pgddb_admin"(Super User).
but when I switch to shc_uadmin, I see a permission error.
That's because the user is lacking the UPDATE privilege ("U" is USAGE).
GRANT USAGE, ALTER ON SEQUENCE mqa_flfo_cstr_id_seq TO shc_uadmin;
ERROR: unrecognized privilege type "alter" SQL state: 42601
There is no ALTER privilege. Try
GRANT UPDATE ON SEQUENCE mqa_flfo_cstr_id_seq, mqa_ffp_nval_id_seq TO shc_uadmin;
