• For SaaS and On-Premises: An owner of the environment or an admin
• For Global functions (available for all environments): The user uploading must have super-admin permissions on the On-Premises server (see Super Admin Role for On-Premises Deployments for details.

Functions are all open source and can be found in the UDF Library. To learn how to write your own UDF please follow the instructions and samples provided in the GitHub repository.
