The reviewer wants to produce the list with one SQL statement in the query editor. How should the reviewer get the information?

Options (Reading Mode) Click to filter discussion →
  1. A. Run SHOW GRANTS ON TABLE main.sales.orders, which lists each principal and the privilege it holds on the table.
  2. B. Run DESCRIBE TABLE main.sales.orders, because its output includes the current grantees along with the table's columns.
  3. C. Use the table details page in Catalog Explorer, because grants are visible there and no SQL statement returns them.
  4. D. Run SELECT * FROM grants, the global view that lists every grant in the metastore without needing to name a specific object.
