The cPanel API 2 system is deprecated. We strongly recommend that you use UAPI instead of cPanel API 2.


Description

This function lists a user's privileges on a MySQL® database.

Warning:
  • This function is currently deprecated and does not function. We strongly recommend that you use the MysqlFE::getdbuserprivileges function.

Important:

When you disable the MySQL/MariaDB role and remote MySQL is not already configured, the system disables this function.

  • cPanel API 2 calls that use cPanel tags vary in code syntax and in their output.
  • For more information, read our Deprecated cPanel Tag Usage documentation.
