# 30.24. `role_usage_grants`

The view `role_usage_grants` is meant to identify `USAGE` privileges granted on various kinds of objects to a group that the current user is a member of. In PostgreSQL, this currently only applies to domains, and since domains do not have real privileges in PostgreSQL, this view is empty. Further information can be found under `usage_privileges`. In the future, this view may contain more useful information.
