Creating Oracle Applications Connections

You can create connections to Oracle Applications and use those connections to create data sets.

You use the Oracle Applications connection type to create connections to OBIEE. After you create a connection, you can access and use subject areas and analyses as data sets for your projects.

In the Home page of Data Visualization Data, click Create, then click Connection. to display.
In the Create Connection dialog box, click the Oracle Applications icon.
Enter the following information: A name for the new connection, the OBIEE URL, user name, and password.
In the Authentication field, specify if you want the users to be prompted to log in to access data from the Oracle Applications data source.
- If you select Always use these credentials, then the login name and password you provide for the connection is always used and users aren’t prompted to log in.
- If you select Require users to enter their own credentials, then users are prompted to enter their user names and passwords to use the data from the Oracle Applications data source. Users required to log in see only the data that they have the permissions, privileges, and role assignments to see.
Click Save.
