---------------------------------
Summary: Allow some metadata operations with column-level
privileges
Key: SENTRY-881
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SENTRY-881
Project: Sentry
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Sentry
Affects Versions: 1.5.0, 1.6.0
Reporter: Lenni Kuff
It would be useful to allow some metadata operations if a user has only
column-level permissions on a table. The two common statements are:
DESCRIBE table
and
SHOW COLUMNS IN table
DESCRIBE variants such as DESCRIBE FORMATTED should continue to require table
level privileges, since they expose additional table metadata.
