Understand Bulk Loading Data

Oracle Identity Cloud Service may be one among many repositories in your organization. When you start using Oracle Identity Cloud Service, you might want to load data from the other repositories into Oracle Identity Cloud Service. Bulk loading offers a solution to this requirement.

Bulk loading is aimed at automating the process of loading a large amount of data into Oracle Identity Cloud Service. You can bulk load data after you subscribe to Oracle Identity Cloud Service or at any time during the production lifetime. You can bulk load users, groups, and application roles. Onboarding Users and Groups are administrative tasks.

You can access the Bulk Loading Users and Groups Using CSV Files tutorial to see how to import user accounts into Oracle Identity Cloud Service.

You can bulk load data using the following methods:
  • The Identity Cloud Service console

  • SCIM-based APIs

In this section, you learn how to bulk load data by using the Identity Cloud Service console.

For more information about how to use SCIM APIs, see REST API for Oracle Identity Cloud Service.
