Quick Start

Set up your environment and retrieve your first list of integrations for Oracle Integration Cloud Service on Oracle Public Cloud Machine (ICS on OPCM) using the REST API by performing the following tasks.

Step 1: Obtain Account Information

From your Oracle Cloud Administrator, obtain the appropriate account credentials to enable you to administer ICS on OPCM. Specifically, you will need:
  • Username and password

  • The Service URL of your ICS on OPCM instance, which is listed in the welcome email you receive with your trial or purchased subscription.

Step 2: Install cURL

The examples within this document use the cURL command-line tool to demonstrate how to access the REST API for ICS on OPCM.

To connect securely to the server, you must install a version of cURL that supports SSL and provide an SSL certificate authority (CA) certificate file or bundle to authenticate against the Verisign CA certificate. For more information about:

The following procedure demonstrates how to install cURL on a Windows 64-bit system.
  1. In your browser, navigate to the cURL home page at http://curl.haxx.se and click Download in the left navigation menu.

  2. On the cURL Releases and Downloads page, locate the SSL-enabled version of the cURL software that corresponds to your operating system, click the link to download the ZIP file, and install the software.

  3. Navigate to the cURL CA Certs page at http://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html and download the cacert.pem SSL CA certificate bundle in the folder where you installed cURL.

  4. Open a command window, navigate to the directory where you installed cURL, and set the cURL environment variable, CURL_CA_BUNDLE, to the location of an SSL certificate authority (CA) certificate bundle. For example:

    C:\curl> set CURL_CA_BUNDLE=cacert.pem

You are now ready to send requests to ICS on OPCM using cURL.

Step 3: Retrieve Your First List of Integrations

Use a cURL command such as the following to retrieve a list of existing integrations. Change example.com to the host in your Service URL as described in Send Requests.

curl -u jstein:welcome1
 -H "Content-Type:application/json"
 -H "Accept:application/json"
 -X GET
