Amazon Redshift will no longer support the creation of new Python UDFs starting Patch 198. Existing Python UDFs will continue to function until June 30, 2026. For more information, see the [ blog post ](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/big-data/amazon-redshift-python-user-defined-functions-will-reach-end-of-support-after-june-30-2026/). 

# Dynamic data masking system views
<a name="r_ddm-svv"></a>

Superusers, users with the `sys:operator` role, and users with the ACCESS SYSTEM TABLE permission can access the following DDM-related system views.
+  [SVV\$1MASKING\$1POLICY](r_SVV_MASKING_POLICY.md) 

   Use SVV\$1MASKING\$1POLICY to view all masking policies created on the cluster or workgroup. 
+  [SVV\$1ATTACHED\$1MASKING\$1POLICY](r_SVV_ATTACHED_MASKING_POLICY.md) 

  Use SVV\$1ATTACHED\$1MASKING\$1POLICY to view all the relations and users or roles with policies attached on the currently connected database.
+  [SYS\$1APPLIED\$1MASKING\$1POLICY\$1LOG](SYS_APPLIED_MASKING_POLICY_LOG.md) 

  Use SYS\$1APPLIED\$1MASKING\$1POLICY\$1LOG to trace the application of masking policies on queries that reference DDM-protected relations.

Following are some examples of the information that you can find using system views.

```
--Select all policies associated with specific users, as opposed to roles
SELECT policy_name,
       schema_name,
       table_name,
       grantee
FROM svv_attached_masking_policy
WHERE grantee_type = 'user';     

--Select all policies attached to a specific user
SELECT policy_name,
       schema_name,
       table_name,
       grantee
FROM svv_attached_masking_policy
WHERE grantee = 'target_grantee_name'            
            
--Select all policies attached to a given table
SELECT policy_name,
       schema_name,

      AND schema_name = 'target_schema_name';            
            
--Select the highest priority policy attachment for a given role
SELECT samp.policy_name,
       samp.priority,
       samp.grantee,
       smp.policy_expression

        'target_schema_name', 
        'target_table_name', 
        'target_column_name', 
        'target_role_name')
ORDER BY samp.priority desc
LIMIT 1;         

--See which policy a specific user will see on a specific column in a given relation

       smp.policy_expression
FROM svv_masking_policy AS smp

    ON samp.policy_name = smp.policy_name
WHERE
    samp.grantee_type = 'role' AND
    samp.policy_name = mask_get_policy_for_user_on_column(
        'target_schema_name',
        'target_table_name',
        'target_column_name',
        'target_user_name')

 --Select all policies attached to a given relation.
SELECT policy_name,

WHERE relation_name = 'relation_name'
AND schema_name = 'schema_name';
