Authentication

Oracle Business Activity Monitoring uses a certificate authority (CA) certificate, issued by Verisign, to enable clients to connect securely to the server.

Note::

Ensure that you have the appropriate log-in credentials for creating, managing, and deleting Oracle Business Activity Monitoring resources.

You access the Oracle Business Activity Monitoring REST resources over HTTPS and must provide the following information for authentication:

• An SSL certificate authority (CA) certificate file or bundle to authenticate against the Verisign CA certificate.

• User name and password for your Oracle Business Activity Monitoring account.

For example, to authenticate using cURL:

• Set the cURL environment variable, CURL_CA_BUNDLE, to the location of your local CA certificate bundle. For information about CA certificate verification using cURL, see: http://curl.haxx.se/docs/sslcerts.html.

• Pass the user name and password for your Oracle Business Activity Monitoring account (for example, jstein and welcome1) using the -u cURL option.

The following provides an example cURL command:

curl -i -X GET -u <username>:<password> -H <request-header>:<value> https://<subdomain>.<domain>.com:<port>/<resource-path>
