Authentication
Select Oracle HCM Cloud.
WebCenter Content URL
The URL of WebCenter Content Server where Oracle HCM Cloud uploads the output XML data.
HCM URL
The URL of HCM Application Server that contains newly created data after the Secure Agent loads the XML data from the WebServer Content Server to the HCM Application Server.
The following URL shows a sample HCM URL: https://adc-xxx-hcm.oracledemo.com/

Password
Password for the Oracle HCM Cloud account.
Schema Directory
The directory path where HCM extract definitions XSD, XLS, and FlexFieldReport.xls files are stored on the machine where the Secure Agent is installed.
You must click the Test button after you create an Oracle HCM Cloud connection. The Secure Agent creates following directories under the schema directory:
Reader
The reader directory contains the XSD files. You must place all the XSD files after you generate them under the reader directory.
Writer
The writer directory contains the XLS files. You must place all the XLS and FlexFieldReport.xls files after you download them under the writer directory.
Temp
The temp directory contains the staging files before loading.
Encryption Mode
Method you want to use to encrypt or decrypt the data based on the encryption method. Select one of the following options:
NONE
The data is not encrypted.
PGPUNSIGNED
Select this option to encrypt or decrypt the data using the PGPUnsigned encryption method.
PGPSIGNED
Select this option to encrypt or decrypt the data using the PGPSigned encryption method.
Note: When you read data from an Oracle HCM Cloud source, you must specify the same Encryption Mode option that you used in the Oracle HCM Cloud application.
PrivateKey Passphrase
Provide the passphrase that you use to encrypt the private key.
For more information about the private key passphrase, refer the Oracle documentation.
PrivateKey Path
The file path where the private key is stored on the machine where the Secure Agent is installed.
Note: You must provide the private key corresponding to the public key that you uploaded in the Oracle HCM Cloud application.
Fusion PublicKey Path
The file path where the fusion public key is stored on the machine where the Secure Agent is installed.
Note: You must raise a service request to Oracle HCM Cloud to retrieve the fusion public key.
For more information about the fusion public key, refer the Oracle documentation.
Submit Extract
Submits the HCM extract definitions with the parameter values that you provide in the request message. Default is disabled.
When you use the Submit Extract option, the Secure Agent submits the instance of the HCM extract definition that you provide and downloads the latest output data file corresponding to the HCM extract definition from the WebCenter Content Server.
You can also submit the HCM extract definitions from the Oracle HCM Cloud application directly.
Note: This property is applicable when you read data from the Oracle HCM Cloud application.
