Built-in packages v16

Built-in packages are provided with EDB Postgres Advanced Server. For certain packages, non-superusers must be explicitly granted the EXECUTE privilege on the package before using any of the package’s functions or procedures. For most of the built-in packages, EXECUTE privilege is granted to PUBLIC by default.

For information about using the GRANT command to provide access to a package, see SQL reference.

All built-in packages are owned by the special sys user that must be specified when granting or revoking privileges on built-in packages:

GRANT EXECUTE ON PACKAGE SYS.UTL_FILE TO john;
