Granting query monitoring permissions for a user - Amazon Redshift

Amazon Redshift will no longer support the use of Python UDFs after June 30, 2026. We will start enforcing it in phases. For more information on the details of Python end of life and migration options, see the blog post that was published on June 30, 2025.

Granting query monitoring permissions for a user

Users with sys:monitor permission can view all queries. In addition, users with sys:operator permission can cancel queries, analyze query history, and perform vacuum operations.

To grant query monitoring permission for a user

  1. Enter the following command to provide system monitor access, where user-name is the name of the user for whom you want to provide access.

    grant role sys:monitor to "IAM:user-name";

  2. (Optional) Enter the following command to provide system operator access, where user-name is the name of the user for whom you want to provide access.

    grant role sys:operator to "IAM:user-name";
