How to view the current user’s permissions in MySQL?

To check the current user’s permissions, you can use the following SQL statement:

SHOW GRANTS;

This statement will display all the permissions currently possessed by the current user. To view the permissions of a specific user, you can use the following statement:

SHOW GRANTS FOR 'username'@'host';

In this case, ‘username’ refers to the username for which permissions are being checked, and ‘host’ is the hostname of that user.
