Connection details

The following table describes the basic connection properties:

Use secret Vault
Stores sensitive credentials for this connection in the secrets manager that is configured for your organization.
This property appears only if secrets manager is set up for your organization.
This property is not supported by Data Ingestion and Replication.
When you enable the secret vault in the connection, you can select which credentials that the Secure Agent retrieves from the secrets manager. If you don't enable this option, the credentials are stored in the repository or on a local Secure Agent, depending on how your organization is configured.
For information about how to configure and use a secrets manager, see Secrets manager configuration.
Runtime Environment
The name of the runtime environment where you want to run tasks.
Specify a Secure Agent, Hosted Agent, or serverless runtime environment.
ERP Endpoint URL
The endpoint URL of the Oracle Financials application server.
Note: To validate the ERP Endpoint URL, type the following URL in the web browser:
<ERP Endpoint URL>/publicFinancialCommonErpIntegration/ErpIntegrationService?WSDL
The URL should open a WSDL file that indicates that the ERP Endpoint URL is valid.
Authentication Type
The type of user authentication to connect to the Oracle Financials Cloud application.
Select Basic Authentication type.

IO Directory
The directory path where the schema files and data are stored. Store the schema files in the Secure Agent machine.
Click the Test button after you create an Oracle Financials Cloud V1 connection.
The Secure Agent creates following directories under the IO directory:
  • - Reader: The reader directory contains an Output sub-directory. The .csv file that you download from the Oracle Financials Cloud application is downloaded as a ZIP file and stored in the following directory: IO Directory\Reader\Output
  • Note: You can override the directory path where you download the .csv file in the Outbound_Output_Directory advanced property field.
  • - Writer: The writer directory contains Logs and Schema sub-directories. Place all the XLSM and CTL files after you download them in the following directory: IO Directory\Writer\Schema
  • - Temp: The temp directory contains a WorkingDirectory sub-directory that contains the staging files.

Encryption mode

To access Oracle Financials Cloud, configure PGPUNSIGNED and PGPSIGNED encryption modes. Default is None.
Select the required encryption mode to encrypt or decrypt the data when you run a mapping to write data to a target.
