## 35.53. `routine_sequence_usage`

The view `routine_sequence_usage` identifies all sequences that are used by a function or procedure, either in the SQL body or in parameter default expressions. (This only works for unquoted SQL bodies, not quoted bodies or functions in other languages.) A sequence is only included if that sequence is owned by a currently enabled role.
