Attention: To align with new corporate security policies, and to match policies adopted by other communities within Oracle, the My Oracle Support Community access requirements will change beginning September 18, 2025. MOSC will now require that member accounts in our community be associated to a *corporate* email address. This means that users with generic domains (such as gmail.com, yahoo.com, and others) will no longer be granted access to the discussion forums and ideas labs. If this policy affects you, act now to change the email address that is associated with your Oracle (and community) account. Alternatively, you can opt to create a new Oracle account that uses your corporate email domain.

Question on AUTHID

Jun 27, 2013 9:02AM edited Apr 17, 2020 5:00AM in PL/SQL (MOSC) 5 commentsAnswered

Hello Everyone

I have created a package A with AUTHID set to DEFINER.

This package has a procedure A.B. Here the AUTHID is set to CURRENT_USER.

And this procedure A.B calls another system package say DBMS_STATS which will have its own AUTHID.

So, we have different AUTHID settings at different levels. How does it all work out ? Which one takes the preference ?
