    <p>I forget what version PostgreSQL added the syntax, but one of the easiest ways to administer permissions in PostgreSQL is through the "GRANT foo, priv ON ALL something IN SCHEMA" syntax.</p> <pre><code>BEGIN; GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE ON ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA my_schema TO my_role; GRANT USAGE ON ALL SEQUENCES IN SCHEMA my_schema TO my_role; GRANT EXECUTE ON ALL FUNCTIONS IN SCHEMA my_schema TO my_role; COMMIT; </code></pre> <p>Very handy for making sure that permissions are always set correctly.</p> <p>The EXECUTE for FUNCTIONS may seem spooky, but shouldn't be unless your functions were created with the SECURITY DEFINER attribute (and if you are using SECURITY DEFINER, you'd better be cautious since you're playing around with the PostgreSQL version of a "setuid" function). If you space out your TABLES across different SCHEMAS based on the expected permissions, then this becomes a pretty handy convention when used with the search_path variable.</p> <pre><code>ALTER ROLE my_role SET search_path = my_schema, auth_schema, public; -- Avoid using the public schema (pretty please) </code></pre> <p>Where auth_schema has a collection of tables that my_role shouldn't have direct read or write privileges on. Assigning privs to GROUPS is also useful.</p> <p>Here are some relevant docs:</p> <p><a href="http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/sql-grant.html" rel="nofollow">http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/sql-grant.html</a></p> <p>Don't forget you can use "\h GRANT" in psql to easily figure out the syntax or remember what can be done on all objects in a schema (search for "IN SCHEMA").</p>

    1. COThe following is in 9.1 (but not 8.4 where I currently sit)... "There is also an option to grant privileges on all objects of the same type within one or more schemas. This functionality is currently supported only for tables, sequences, and functions (but note that ALL TABLES is considered to include views and foreign tables)." Thanks, though.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
