CREATE USER

The CREATE USER statement creates new Databend accounts. It enables authentication, resource-limit, password-management, for new accounts.

See also:

Syntax​

CREATE USER <name> IDENTIFIED [WITH auth_type ] BY 'password_string'

Where:

auth_type: {
    double_sha1_password
  | sha256_password
}

auth_type default is double_sha1_password.

tip

In order to make MySQL client/drivers existing tools easy to connect to Databend, we support two authentication plugins which is same as MySQL server did:

  • double_sha1_password

    • mysql_native_password is one of MySQL authentication plugin(long time ago), this plugin uses double_sha1_password to store the password(SHA1(SHA1(password)).

  • sha256_password

    • caching_sha2_password is a new default authentication plugin starting with MySQL-8.0.4, it uses sha256 to transform the password.

More of the MySQL authentication plugin, please see A Tale of Two Password Authentication Plugins.
