view list of users ArcSDE

[TomMaggard1]

I'm running Server 10.3 SQL. This is my first instance of running a server. Is there a way to view my list of users I've added to ArcSDE other than clicking on a feature dataset>Privileges>Add??

You can do it in SQL Server Manager Studio.

Thank you Jacob. I don't currently have access to that. IT is slowly giving me more privileges so I'm guessing that this will fall in that category.

Hi Tom,

You can also use some SQL in SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS):

SELECT * FROM sys.database_principals

Here is a link to a site that will list all permissions for all users in a database (in SQL):
