View Current User in Oracle: 2 Easy Methods

To view the currently connected users, you can use one of the following methods:

  1. Use the statement SELECT USER FROM DUAL to query the current connected user.
  2. Retrieve the user from the DUAL table using SQL.
  3. Query the current connected user using the statement SELECT SYS_CONTEXT(‘USERENV’, ‘SESSION_USER’) FROM DUAL;
  4. Retrieve the current user session in SQL.

Both methods can retrieve the current user connected.
