I am going to get the list of all users, including Windows users and 'sa', who have access to a particular database in MS SQL Server. Basically, I would like the list to look like as what is shown in SQL Server Management Studio
(i.e. the list that is shown when you expand [databse] -> Security -> Users
) with one important exception: I do not want to see the 'dbo'
in the list. Rather, I would like to see the actual user who owns the database. So, for example, if 'sa' is the 'dbo'
, 'sa'
must be included in the list instead of 'dbo'
. Another note not to be missed is, the list in the SQL Server Management Studio
normally shows Windows users in addition to SQL users, And I would like those users to be included as well.
So far, I have been able to come up with the following query:
SELECT * FROM sys.database_principals where (type='S' or type = 'U')
This query is almost right but the problem is it doesn't satisfy the 'dbo'
condition.
How can I change this query or should I use another one?

For the SQL Server Owner, you should be able to use:
For a list of SQL Users:

Both of these select all the users of the current database (not the server).

Whenever you 'see' something in the GUI (SSMS) and you're like "that's what I need", you can always run Sql Profiler to fish for the query that was used.
Run Sql Profiler. Attach it to your database of course.
Then right click in the GUI (in SSMS) and click "Refresh".
And then go see what Profiler "catches".
I got the below when I was in MyDatabase / Security / Users and clicked "refresh" on the "Users".
Again, I didn't come up with the WHERE clause and the LEFT OUTER JOIN, it was a part of the SSMS query. And this query is something that somebody at Microsoft has written (you know, the peeps who know the product inside and out, aka, the experts), so they are familiar with all the weird "flags" in the database.
But the SSMS/GUI -> Sql Profiler tricks works in many scenarios.

This selects all the users in the SQL server that the administrator created!

I try to avoid using the "SELECT * " option and just pull what data I want or need. The code below is what I use, you may cull out or add columns and aliases per your needs.
I also us "IIF" (instant if) to replace binary 0 or 1 with a yes or no. It just makes it easier to read for the non-techie that may want this info.
Here is what I use:
Hope this helps.

To run a query returning users of individual databases, try this:
This will run a query (and return a result) for each database. So to get all users (probably with a lot of internal users and roles you are not interested in, try:
Just apply filters mentioned in other replys to get exactly the subset you are looking for.

I use the following batch to list all logins of all databases including their owners.
It loops through every database and writes the DB's principals into a temporary table (
##DBLogin
), appends the owner-information to it, updates the owner's login type ifNULL
, executes aSELECT
on the temporary table and drops the table again, leaving you with a nice tabular result with all logins for each DB (can be executed in a single go).Watch out: The owners login type is a bit taken from here and there and if still unknown, guessed. Comment according lines out if in doubt (the lines that contain
UPDATE
statements).
