We have AD Group with members. The AD Group is created as SQL Server login. I would like to know what all access this login has. Please let me know.

    Hi @Chaitanya Kiran ,

    Please check below T-SQL.

    --List all effective permissions for securable class server  
    EXECUTE AS LOGIN = 'Cathy'  
    Go  
    SELECT * FROM fn_my_permissions(NULL, 'SERVER');   
    Go  
    
    --List all effective permissions for user Cathy in database AdventureWorks2019  
    EXECUTE AS USER = 'Cathy'  
    GO  
    USE AdventureWorks2019  
    GO  
    SELECT * FROM fn_my_permissions(null, 'database');

    Go to SQL Server Management Studio. Go to the server and then Security\Logins and find the group, right click Properties.

    Server Roles indicates the server-level roles the user has. You can look up in the docs what permissions each server role has.
    User Mapping shows the databases the user has access to and what database roles they have for each one. You can look up in the docs what permissions each database role h as.
    Securables shows explicit grants (or denials) of specific permissions at the server level.
