redshift_grant resource does not support granting privileges to users

[viktorradnai]

The redshift_grant resource (https://registry.terraform.io/providers/brainly/redshift/latest/docs/resources/grant) currently only supports grants to groups, even though the equivalent native Redshift GRANT statement (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/redshift/latest/dg/r_GRANT.html) supports both groups and users.

Hi, just wanted to know if there's a timeline for this enhancement? Thanks.

Hi sorry for the late reply. We have this in our backlog but currently no ETA. We manage users by organizing them in groups and assigning privileges to groups rather than individuals. That's why this currently has low priority.

If anyone wants to work on this in the future, please share the information here so we do not duplicate the work (in case I start working on that too).

User support has been added to redshift_grant and redshift_default_privileges resources. The changes are already in the master branch and will be included in the next release.
