Roles and Views in the Application Services Database for SQL Server

The SQL Server provider database for ASP.NET application services includes a number of database objects (for example, stored procedures and tables) to support ASP.NET membership, role manager, profiles, Web Parts personalization, and Web events. The database includes roles and views that restrict access to only the objects required to support a particular feature. This enables you to improve the security of your applications by granting the minimum required permission to the identity that connects to the SQL Server database.

Database Roles

The database includes roles that grant only the required access to database objects that support the SQL Server provider features. To improve the security of your application, you can create a database account and add it as a member of only the required role or roles for features.

There are three types of database roles provided.

  • FullAccess   Provides access to all database objects that support a feature without requiring administrator access.

  • BasicAccess   Provides minimum access for a user to utilize a feature.

  • ReportingAccess   Provides access to search and view capabilities for a feature.

Each application feature supports its own set of roles. For example, the database includes an **aspnet_**MembershipFullAccess role, an **aspnet_**RolesFullAccess role, and so on.

aspnet_WebEvent_FullAccess

Database Views

The SQL Server provider database includes predefined views that enable you to access the data for a particular feature without accessing the database tables directly. The views provided are for read-only access. You should not attempt to update the data in the database using the views. All updates should be made using the .NET Framework classes for each feature.

Note

Date and time values are stored in the SQL Server provider database in Universal Coordinated Time (UTC) format. As a result, views provided for features will return date and time values in UTC format. Properties of type DateTime that are included with a particular ASP.NET feature will return the local date and time based on the time zone settings of the Web server.

The following table lists the database views available in the SQL Server provider database and the information returned for each view. Some views display private information, such as the password question and answer for a membership user, so you should take care not to expose the sensitive information to an unwanted source.
