Description: SHOW GRANT displays the privileges defined for a specified table, view, or procedure. Allowed privileges are DELETE, EXECUTE, INSERT, SELECT, UPDATE, or ALL. To change privileges, use the SQL statements GRANT or REVOKE.

Before using SHOW GRANT, you might want to list the available database objects. Use SHOW PROCEDURES to list existing procedures; use SHOW TABLES to list existing tables; use SHOW VIEWS to list existing views.
