Creating Designated Account
This document describes how to create a designated account for a TencentDB for SQL Server instance in the console.
Designated account description
TencentDB for SQL Server supports creating one or more designated accounts for an instance. Attention needs to be paid to the following two points for designated accounts:
A designated account can only view and own the specified database. For example, account B is created in instance A and designated to have the owner permission of the database db1. Then, when logging in to instance A with designated account B, you can only view the database db1, but you can perform all operations on it.
A designated account can be authorized to multiple databases, but a database can be authorized to only one designated account. This means that a designated account can have the owner permissions of multiple databases, but a database with owner permission granted to a designated account cannot be authorized to other designated accounts.
Directions
1. Log in to the TencentDB for SQL Server console. Click an Instance ID or Manage in the Operation column to access the instance management page.
2. On the instance management page, select Account Management > Create Account and enter relevant information in the pop-up window. After confirming that everything is correct, click OK.
