How to query the permissions on an Oracle directory?

Question

I have a directory in all_directories, but I need to find out what permissions are associated with it, i.e. what has been granted on it?

Answer 1

You can see all the privileges for all directories wit the following

SELECT *
from all_tab_privs
where table_name in
  (select directory_name 
   from dba_directories);

The following gives you the sql statements to grant the privileges should you need to backup what you've done or something

select 'Grant '||privilege||' on directory '||table_schema||'.'||table_name||' to '||grantee 
from all_tab_privs 
where table_name in (select directory_name from dba_directories);
