53.9. pg_group

pg_group

The view pg_group exists for backwards compatibility: it emulates a catalog that existed in PostgreSQL before version 8.1. It shows the names and members of all roles that are marked as not rolcanlogin, which is an approximation to the set of roles that are being used as groups.

Column Type Description
groname `name` (references pg_authid.rolname) Name of the group
grosysid `oid` (references pg_authid.oid) ID of this group
grolist `oid[]` (references pg_authid.oid) An array containing the IDs of the roles in this group
