Understanding User Roles

In the Oracle Application Express, users log in to a shared work area called a workspace. Users are divided into three primary roles:

  • Developers create and edit applications.

  • Workspace administrators are developers who also perform administrator tasks specific to their workspace such as managing user accounts, monitoring workspace activity, and viewing log files. See "Workspace and Application Administration".

  • Instance administrators are superusers that manage the entire hosted instance using the Oracle Application Express Administration Services application.
