PostgreSQL limited access

To restrict permissions to the users accessing PostgreSQL instance via Playbooks, we recommend creating a custom role with the minimal permissions to get the relevant data. Here are 3 queries that you can run in your pgSQL query console to create a new account:

Create a new user:

CREATE USER demo_video WITH PASSWORD '%3v8923nv3yn5I';

GRANT SELECT ON table_name TO demo_video;

Verify permissions granted:

SELECT *
  FROM information_schema.role_table_grants 
 WHERE grantee = 'demo_video';
