expdp using user that is not the table owner

OraCMar 24 2016 — edited Mar 26 2016

Hoping someone can help clear up something for me here.

I've got a table USER1.CUSTOMERS.

Is it possible to run an expdp as USER2 and specify USER1.CUSTOMERS in the TABLES parameter?

I'm currently trying it and it fails telling

Connected to: Oracle Database 12c Enterprise Edition Release 12.1.0.2.0 - 64bit Production

With the Partitioning, OLAP, Advanced Analytics and Real Application Testing options

ORA-39001: invalid argument value

ORA-39034: Table CUSTOMERS does not exist.

I've got synonyms setup so that USER2 can access USER1's table and also granted "select" to USER2 for the table.

create synonym CUSTOMERS for USER1.CUSTOMERS;

GRANT SELECT ON CUSTOMERS TO USER2;

Is this possible or do I always have to specify the schema owner in expdp parameters?

Thanks in advance.
