Class DynamicGroup

A dynamic group defines a matching rule. Every bare metal or virtual machine instance is deployed with an instance certificate. The certificate contains metadata about the instance. This includes the instance OCID and the compartment OCID, along with a few other optional properties. When an API call is made using this instance certificate as the authenticator, the certificate can be matched to one or multiple dynamic groups. The instance can then get access to the API based on the permissions granted in policies written for the dynamic groups.
This works like regular user/group membership. But in that case, the membership is a static relationship, whereas in a dynamic group, the membership of an instance certificate to a dynamic group is determined during runtime. For more information, see Managing Dynamic Groups.
Warning: Oracle recommends that you avoid using any confidential information when you supply string values using the API.
