MySQL 8 role based privlileges

MySQL 8 implement role based privileges:

If you are wondering about how to implement new features of MySQL 8 about role based privileges. Then here is my 2 cents.
It doesn't work like Oracle in which we create role, grant privileges to role, grant role to the user, and you are all set.

There are two options available:

    01. Activate role at session level, using set role
    02. Activate all roles on login globally

Role at session level:

    SET ROLE is used to modify user's effective privileges in the current session.    

    SET ROLE DEFAULT;
    SET ROLE 'role1', 'role2';
    SET ROLE ALL;
    SET ROLE ALL EXCEPT 'role1', 'role2';
   
Activate role globally:
 

By default activate_all_roles_on_login is OFF, check it by using SELECT VARIABLES LIKE '%activate%';
 

Execute statement SET GLOBAL activate_all_roles_on_login = ON;
    

If you are logged in then log out and log in back and user will have the privileges.
   
In MySQL 8, you have to activate_all_roles_on_login and re-login in to the session if you are already login.
