 - **syslog_access** (String) A clause that specifies the level of access that the user has to the Amazon Redshift system tables and views. If `RESTRICTED` (default) is specified, the user can see only the rows generated by that user in user-visible system tables and views. If `UNRESTRICTED` is specified, the user can see all rows in user-visible system tables and views, including rows generated by another user. `UNRESTRICTED` doesn't give a regular user access to superuser-visible tables. Only superusers can see superuser-visible tables.
