Grant user access to only create view

  • Hi,

    I have a user that currently only has read access to database XX, I want to elevate that users access to create views also but nothing else.

    Thank you in advance!

  • well if they are going to create views, then they need at least two more permissions don't they?

    VIEW DEFINITION, so they can see other table structures,and db_datareader (which you said they already had) on all tables, so they can select from other items to build the views.

    take a look at these two threads on the same subject, it might help:

    create a new db role that can only create, alter and drop VIEWs

    Permission to Create, Modify & Delete Views only.
