Answer 1

You need to GRANT the CREATE VIEW privilege to the USER which is creating the view.

For example, I create a new user to let it create a session, a table and a view:

SQL> create user test identified by test;

User created.

SQL> grant create session, create table, create view to test;

Grant succeeded.

SQL> conn test/test@pdborcl;
Connected.
SQL> Create Table advanced
  2   (Id  varchar(15),
  3   Name varchar(20),
  4   Dept  varchar(15),
  5   Cgpa  float,
  6   Birth_date date,
  7   Mob_no  int,
  8   Dist varchar(20),
  9   Salary  number(8));

Table created.

SQL> Create View advanced_data as
  2  (
  3  select name,dept,dist,salary from advanced
  4  );

View created.

If I revoke the privilege, you will recieve ORA-01031: insufficient privileges:

SQL> revoke create view from test;

Revoke succeeded.

SQL> conn test/test@pdborcl;
Connected.
SQL> Create or replace View advanced_data as
  2  (
  3  select name,dept,dist,salary from advanced
  4  );
Create or replace View advanced_data as
                       *
