SYS_CONTEXT

Syntax

Description of the illustration sys_context.gif

Purpose

SYS_CONTEXT returns the value of parameter associated with the context namespace. You can use this function in both SQL and PL/SQL statements.

For namespace and parameter, you can specify either a string or an expression that resolves to a string designating a namespace or an attribute. The context namespace must already have been created, and the associated parameter and its value must also have been set using the DBMS_SESSION.set_context procedure. The namespace must be a valid SQL identifier. The parameter name can be any string. It is not case sensitive, but it cannot exceed 30 bytes in length.

The datatype of the return value is VARCHAR2. The default maximum size of the return value is 256 bytes. You can override this default by specifying the optional length parameter, which must be a NUMBER or a value that can be implicitly converted to NUMBER. The valid range of values is 1 to 4000 bytes. If you specify an invalid value, then Oracle Database ignores it and uses the default.

Oracle provides a built-in namespace called USERENV, which describes the current session. The predefined parameters of namespace USERENV are listed in Table 5-11.

Examples

The following statement returns the name of the user who logged onto the database:

CONNECT OE/OE
SELECT SYS_CONTEXT ('USERENV', 'SESSION_USER')
FROM DUAL;
SYS_CONTEXT ('USERENV', 'SESSION_USER')
------------------------------------------------------
OE

The following hypothetical example returns the group number that was set as the value for the attribute group_no in the PL/SQL package that was associated with the context hr_apps when hr_apps was created:

SELECT SYS_CONTEXT ('hr_apps', 'group_no') "User Group"
FROM DUAL;

Table 5-11 Predefined Parameters of Namespace USERENV

Parameter	Return Value
`ACTION`	Identifies the position in the module (application name) and is set through the `DBMS_APPLICATION_INFO` package or OCI.
`AUDITED_CURSORID`	Returns the cursor ID of the SQL that triggered the audit. This parameter is not valid in a fine-grained auditing environment. If you specify it in such an environment, Oracle Database always returns `NULL`.
`AUTHENTICATED_IDENTITY`	Returns the identity used in authentication. In the list that follows, the type of user is followed by the value returned: Kerberos-authenticated enterprise user: kerberos principal name Kerberos-authenticated external user : kerberos principal name; same as the schema name SSL-authenticated enterprise user: the DN in the user's PKI certificate SSL-authenticated external user: the DN in the user's PKI certificate Password-authenticated enterprise user: nickname; same as the login name Password-authenticated database user: the database username; same as the schema name OS-authenticated external user: the external operating system user name Radius/DCE-authenticated external user: the schema name Proxy with DN : Oracle Internet Directory DN of the client Proxy with certificate: certificate DN of the client Proxy with username: database user name if client is a local database user; nickname if client is an enterprise user. SYSDBA/SYSOPER using Password File: login name SYSDBA/SYSOPER using OS authentication: operating system user name
`AUTHENTICATION_DATA`	Data being used to authenticate the login user. For X.503 certificate authenticated sessions, this field returns the context of the certificate in HEX2 format. Note: You can change the return value of the `AUTHENTICATION_DATA` attribute using the `length` parameter of the syntax. Values of up to 4000 are accepted. This is the only attribute of `USERENV` for which Oracle Database implements such a change.
`AUTHENTICATION_METHOD`	Returns the method of authentication. In the list that follows, the type of user is followed by the method returned: Password-authenticated enterprise user, local database user, or SYSDBA/SYSOPER using Password File; proxy with username using password: PASSWORD Kerberos-authenticated enterprise or external user: KERBEROS SSL-authenticated enterprise or external user: SSL Radius-authenticated external user: RADIUS OS-authenticated external user or SYSDBA/SYSOPER: OS DCE-authenticated external user: DCE Proxy with certificate, DN, or username without using password: NONE You can use `IDENTIFICATION_TYPE` to distinguish between external and enterprise users when the authentication method is Password, Kerberos, or SSL.
`BG_JOB_ID`	Job ID of the current session if it was established by an Oracle Database background process. Null if the session was not established by a background process.
`CLIENT_IDENTIFIER`	Returns an identifier that is set by the application through the `DBMS_SESSION.SET_IDENTIFIER` procedure, the OCI attribute `OCI_ATTR_CLIENT_IDENTIFIER`, or the Java class `Oracle.jdbc.OracleConnection.setClientIdentifier`. This attribute is used by various database components to identify lightweight application users who authenticate as the same database user.
`CLIENT_INFO`	Returns up to 64 bytes of user session information that can be stored by an application using the `DBMS_APPLICATION_INFO` package.
`CURRENT_BIND`	The bind variables for fine-grained auditing.
`CURRENT_SCHEMA`	Name of the default schema being used in the current schema. This value can be changed during the session with an `ALTER` `SESSION` `SET` `CURRENT_SCHEMA` statement.
`CURRENT_SCHEMAID`	Identifier of the default schema being used in the current session.
`CURRENT_SQL` `CURRENT_SQLn`	`CURRENT_SQL` returns the first 4K bytes of the current SQL that triggered the fine-grained auditing event. The `CURRENT_SQLn` attributes return subsequent 4K-byte increments, where `n` can be an integer from 1 to 7, inclusive. `CURRENT_SQL1` returns bytes 4K to 8K; `CURRENT_SQL2` returns bytes 8K to 12K, and so forth. You can specify these attributes only inside the event handler for the fine-grained auditing feature.
`CURRENT_SQL_LENGTH`	The length of the current SQL statement that triggers fine-grained audit or row-level security (RLS) policy functions or event handlers. Valid only inside the function or event handler.
`DB_DOMAIN`	Domain of the database as specified in the `DB_DOMAIN` initialization parameter.
`DB_NAME`	Name of the database as specified in the `DB_NAME` initialization parameter.
`DB_UNIQUE_NAME`	Name of the database as specified in the `DB_UNIQUE_NAME` initialization parameter.
`ENTRYID`	The current audit entry number. The audit entryid sequence is shared between fine-grained audit records and regular audit records. You cannot use this attribute in distributed SQL statements. The correct auditing entry identifier can be seen only through an audit handler for standard or fine-grained audit.
`ENTERPRISE_IDENTITY`	Returns the user's enterprise-wide identity: For enterprise users: the Oracle Internet Directory DN. For external users: the external identity (Kerberos principal name, Radius and DCE schema names, OS user name, Certificate DN). For local users and SYSDBA/SYSOPER logins: `NULL`. The value of the attribute differs by proxy method: For a proxy with DN: the Oracle Internet Directory DN of the client For a proxy with certificate: the certificate DN of the client for external users; the Oracle Internet Directory DN for global users For a proxy with username: the Oracle Internet Directory DN if the client is an enterprise users; `NULL` if the client is a local database user.
`FG_JOB_ID`	Job ID of the current session if it was established by a client foreground process. Null if the session was not established by a foreground process.
`GLOBAL_CONTEXT_MEMORY`	Returns the number being used in the System Global Area by the globally accessed context.
`GLOBAL_UID`	Returns the global user ID from Oracle Internet Directory for Enterprise User Security (EUS) logins; returns null for all other logins.
`HOST`	Name of the host machine from which the client has connected.
`IDENTIFICATION_TYPE`	Returns the way the user's schema was created in the database. Specifically, it reflects the `IDENTIFIED` clause in the `CREATE`/`ALTER` `USER` syntax. In the list that follows, the syntax used during schema creation is followed by the identification type returned: `IDENTIFIED` `BY` `password`: LOCAL `IDENTIFIED` `EXTERNALLY`: EXTERNAL `IDENTIFIED` `GLOBALLY`: GLOBAL SHARED `IDENTIFIED` `GLOBALLY` `AS` `DN`: GLOBAL PRIVATE
`INSTANCE`	The instance identification number of the current instance.
`INSTANCE_NAME`	The name of the instance.
`IP_ADDRESS`	IP address of the machine from which the client is connected.
`ISDBA`	Returns `TRUE` if the user has been authenticated as having DBA privileges either through the operating system or through a password file.
`LANG`	The ISO abbreviation for the language name, a shorter form than the existing '`LANGUAGE`' parameter.
`LANGUAGE`	The language and territory currently used by your session, along with the database character set, in this form: language_territory.characterset
`MODULE`	The application name (module) set through the `DBMS_APPLICATION_INFO` package or OCI.
`NETWORK_PROTOCOL`	Network protocol being used for communication, as specified in the '`PROTOCOL`=`protocol`' portion of the connect string.
`NLS_CALENDAR`	The current calendar of the current session.
`NLS_CURRENCY`	The currency of the current session.
`NLS_DATE_FORMAT`	The date format for the session.
`NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE`	The language used for expressing dates.
`NLS_SORT`	`BINARY` or the linguistic sort basis.
`NLS_TERRITORY`	The territory of the current session.
`OS_USER`	Operating system user name of the client process that initiated the database session.
`POLICY_INVOKER`	The invoker of row-level security (RLS) policy functions.
`PROXY_ENTERPRISE_IDENTITY`	Returns the Oracle Internet Directory DN when the proxy user is an enterprise user.
`PROXY_GLOBAL_UID`	Returns the global user ID from Oracle Internet Directory for Enterprise User Security (EUS) proxy users; returns `NULL` for all other proxy users.
`PROXY_USER`	Name of the database user who opened the current session on behalf of `SESSION_USER`.
`PROXY_USERID`	Identifier of the database user who opened the current session on behalf of `SESSION_USER`.
`SERVER_HOST`	The host name of the machine on which the instance is running.
`SERVICE_NAME`	The name of the service to which a given session is connected.
`SESSION_USER`	For enterprises users, returns the schema. For other users, returns the database user name by which the current user is authenticated. This value remains the same throughout the duration of the session.
`SESSION_USERID`	Identifier of the database user name by which the current user is authenticated.
`SESSIONID`	The auditing session identifier. You cannot use this attribute in distributed SQL statements.
`SID`	The session number (different from the session ID).
`STATEMENTID`	The auditing statement identifier. `STATEMENTID` represents the number of SQL statements audited in a given session. You cannot use this attribute in distributed SQL statements. The correct auditing statement identifier can be seen only through an audit handler for standard or fine-grained audit.
`TERMINAL`	The operating system identifier for the client of the current session. In distributed SQL statements, this attribute returns the identifier for your local session. In a distributed environment, this is supported only for remote `SELECT` statements, not for remote `INSERT`, `UPDATE`, or `DELETE` operations. (The return length of this parameter may vary by operating system.)

Table 5-12 lists the parameters of namespace USERENV that have been deprecated. Oracle suggests that you use the alternatives suggested in the Comments column.

Table 5-12 Deprecated Parameters of Namespace USERENV

Parameter	Comments
`AUTHENTICATION_TYPE`	This parameter returned a value indicating how the user was authenticated. The same information is now available from the new `AUTHENTICATION_METHOD` parameter combined with `IDENTIFICATION_TYPE`.
`CURRENT_USER`	Use the `SESSION_USER` parameter instead.
`CURRENT_USERID`	Use the `SESSION_USERID` parameter instead.
`EXTERNAL_NAME`	This parameter returned the external name of the user. More complete information can now be obtained from the `AUTHENTICATED_IDENTITY` and `ENTERPRISE_IDENTITY` parameter.
