The Oracle Fusion Middleware Developer's Guide for Oracle Entitlements Server describes how to create authorization policies, request authorization decisions and delegate administration using the available application programming interfaces (API). It also contains information regarding the policy model, and how to use the API to create policy objects.
This document is intended for engineers who use Oracle Entitlements Server development tools to control access to an organization's protected resources. This might involve programmatically requesting an authorization decision, creating an authorization or role mapping policy, developing custom Security Modules and Attribute Retrievers, and managing policy objects.
Our goal is to make Oracle products, services, and supporting documentation accessible to all users, including users that are disabled. To that end, our documentation includes features that make information available to users of assistive technology. This documentation is available in HTML format, and contains markup to facilitate access by the disabled community. Accessibility standards will continue to evolve over time, and Oracle is actively engaged with other market-leading technology vendors to address technical obstacles so that our documentation can be accessible to all of our customers. For information about Oracle's commitment to accessibility, visit the Oracle Accessibility Program website at http://www.oracle.com/pls/topic/lookup?ctx=acc&id=docacc.
