How to allow a user to see a subset of a table or view

I have a view in a private schema with several lets say company_id's. For a special use case I want to allow one company to see a subset of this table (for its own data). So I have create a role and a schema 'company_123' and I have created a view in this schema like



create view company_123.transactions_v as 
select * from business.all_transactions_v
where company_id = 123;


But unfortunately this view is empty as the user 'company_123' has no select rights on the original view. How could I achieve this requirement?

  • I think you're going to need to give this user read permissions on the original underlying table(s) beneath the view. I doubt that Postgres security will let you hack around permissions by using views.

    You need Row Security Policies.

You will have to grant SELECT permissions to the user on your table.



You can slice the visible rows and columns to the user though and you should be able to solve your problem.
