IS_SRVROLEMEMBER (Transact-SQL)

Applies to: SQL Server Azure SQL Database Azure SQL Managed Instance

Indicates whether a SQL Server login is a member of the specified server role.

Transact-SQL syntax conventions

Syntax

IS_SRVROLEMEMBER ( 'role' [ , 'login' ] )  

Arguments

' role '
Is the name of the server role that is being checked. role is sysname.

Valid values for role are user-defined server roles, and the following fixed server roles:

  • sysadmin
  • serveradmin
  • dbcreator
  • setupadmin
  • bulkadmin
  • securityadmin
  • diskadmin
  • public
  • processadmin

' login '
Is the name of the SQL Server login to check. login is sysname, with a default of NULL. If no value is specified, the result is based on the current Execution context. If the parameter contains the word NULL, it returns NULL.

Note

While Microsoft Entra logins are in public preview for Azure SQL Database and Azure Synapse, using a Microsoft Entra principal for login is not supported.

Return Types

int

Return value Description
0 login isn't a member of role.

In Azure SQL Database, this statement always returns 0.
1 login is a member of role.
NULL role or login isn't valid, or you don't have permission to view the role membership.

Remarks

Use IS_SRVROLEMEMBER to determine whether the current user can perform an action requiring the server role's permissions.

If a Windows login, such as Contoso\Mary5, is specified for login, IS_SRVROLEMEMBER returns NULL, unless the login has been granted or denied direct access to SQL Server.

If the optional login parameter isn't provided and if login is a Windows domain login, it may be a member of a fixed server role through membership in a Windows group. To resolve such indirect memberships, IS_SRVROLEMEMBER requests Windows group membership information from the domain controller. If the domain controller is inaccessible or doesn't respond, IS_SRVROLEMEMBER returns role membership information by accounting for the user and its local groups only. If the user specified isn't the current user, the value returned by IS_SRVROLEMEMBER might differ from the authenticator's (such as Active Directory) last data update to SQL Server.

If the optional login parameter is provided, the Windows login that is being queried must be present in sys.server_principals, or IS_SRVROLEMEMBER returns NULL. This indicates that the login isn't valid.

When the login parameter is a domain login or based on a Windows group and the domain controller is inaccessible, calls to IS_SRVROLEMEMBER will fail and might return incorrect or incomplete data.

If the domain controller isn't available, the call to IS_SRVROLEMEMBER returns accurate information when the Windows principal can be authenticated locally, such as a local Windows account or a SQL Server login.

IS_SRVROLEMEMBER always returns 0 when a Windows group is used as the login argument, and this Windows group is a member of another Windows group which is, in turn, a member of the specified server role.

The User Account Control (UAC) setting might also cause the return different results. This would depend on whether the user accessed the server as a Windows group member or as a specific SQL Server user.

This function evaluates role membership, not the underlying permission. For example, the sysadmin fixed server role has the CONTROL SERVER permission. If the user has the CONTROL SERVER permission but isn't a member of the role, this function will correctly report that the user isn't a member of the sysadmin role, even though the user has the same permissions.

To determine whether the current user is a member of the specified Windows group, Microsoft Entra group, or SQL Server database role, use IS_MEMBER (Transact-SQL). To determine whether a SQL Server login is a member of a database role, use IS_ROLEMEMBER (Transact-SQL).

Permissions

Requires VIEW DEFINITION permission on the server role.

Examples

The following example indicates whether the SQL Server login for the current user is a member of the sysadmin fixed server role.

IF IS_SRVROLEMEMBER ('sysadmin') = 1  
   print 'Current user''s login is a member of the sysadmin role'  
ELSE IF IS_SRVROLEMEMBER ('sysadmin') = 0  
   print 'Current user''s login is NOT a member of the sysadmin role'  
ELSE IF IS_SRVROLEMEMBER ('sysadmin') IS NULL  
   print 'ERROR: The server role specified is not valid.';  

The following example indicates whether the domain login Pat is a member of the diskadmin fixed server role.

SELECT IS_SRVROLEMEMBER('diskadmin', 'Contoso\Pat');
