MySQL 8.3 Reference Manual / ... / The INFORMATION_SCHEMA USER_PRIVILEGES Table

The USER_PRIVILEGES table provides information about global privileges. It takes its values from the mysql.user system table.

The USER_PRIVILEGES table has these columns:

GRANTEE

The name of the account to which the privilege is granted, in 'user_name'@'host_name' format.
TABLE_CATALOG

The name of the catalog. This value is always def.
PRIVILEGE_TYPE

The privilege granted. The value can be any privilege that can be granted at the global level; see Section 15.7.1.6, “GRANT Statement”. Each row lists a single privilege, so there is one row per global privilege held by the grantee.
IS_GRANTABLE

YES if the user has the GRANT OPTION privilege, NO otherwise. The output does not list GRANT OPTION as a separate row with PRIVILEGE_TYPE='GRANT OPTION'.

The following statements are not equivalent:

SELECT ... FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.USER_PRIVILEGES

SHOW GRANTS ...
