3 Get Started with Integration Recipes and Accelerators
Recipes and accelerators, collectively known as prebuilt integrations, are preassembled integration solutions.
A recipe or accelerator contains all the resources required for a specific integration scenario. The resources include integration flows, connections, lookups, and certificates. Use a recipe or accelerator to quickly get started building an integration.
Recipes are either project-based or package-based:
- When you install a project-based recipe, you can access it on the Projects page in Oracle Integration. All recipes made available since the Projects feature was introduced are project-based.
- When you install a package-based recipe, you can access it on the Packages page in Oracle Integration. Before the Projects feature was introduced, all recipes were package-based. If you want to convert one of the package-based recipes into a project, you can import the recipe's integration flows (IAR files) into a new project.
To determine whether a recipe in the Integration Store is project-based or package-based before you install it, hover
over the recipe card and click Open Details
to expand the information pane. The recipe details show either Project
code (for a project-based recipe) or Package name (for
a package-based recipe).
