<p>Currently, I am working with ETL team, and we are managing the massive size of Data warehouse. </p>
<p>In the ETL project, database developers may require using COPY command. But unfortunately, they are getting below error.</p>
<pre class="crayon-plain-tag">ERROR:  must be superuser to COPY to or from a file
HINT:  Anyone can COPY to stdout or from stdin. psql's \copy command also works for anyone.</pre> </p>
<p><strong>The solution:</strong><br />
The superuser can create a wrapper function and can assign to the public.</p>
<p><strong>Script to create a wrapper function:</strong></p>
<pre class="crayon-plain-tag">create or replace function copy_for_all(tablename text, filepath text)
returns void
security definer
as
$$
declare
begin
	execute 'copy ' || tablename || ' from ''' || filepath || '''';
