User permission log.

  • If a user has changed. How I can see the permission it had before the change?

  • Unless you had some form of auditing or tracing in place before that happened, you probably don't.

    You can check the default trace, but I'm not sure if database-level permission changes are in there.

    We walk in the dark places no others will enter
    We stand on the bridge and no one may pass
  • Another option is if you have a backup of the database from before the change, you can restore that backup on a test server and examine what the permissions were.
