ORACLE - Checking the permission for directory objects

I came across a few application issues which related to the use of the Oracle directory objects in a few business functions, mainly you could come across one when there is functional requirement to import or extract data from or into file.

I usually find that the majority number of issue is, the user may not have the correct permission granted to access the directory objects and that is the most easiest thing to rectify.

To check if what permission has been granted for a given directory objects, you can use the following query:
