What Do Users Need to Access?

What the user needs to do determines where the user works and therefore, what they need access to.

If the user manages the lifecycle for Oracle Integration instances, they work in Oracle Cloud Console, and you give them access through an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Identity and Access Management (IAM) policy.
If the user designs and monitors integrations, they work in the Oracle Integration instance, and you give them access by assigning them a service role.

The following table provides more details.

Where the person works	Typical tasks	How to give the person access
In the Oracle Cloud Console OR With the Oracle Integration Administrative API	Creating and configuring an Oracle Integration instance, and managing the lifecycle of an instance	Grant them IAM policies.
In the Oracle Integration instance OR With the Developer API for Oracle Integration 3 OR With integration endpoints (for your integrations)	Designing and monitoring integrations	Assign them service roles for Oracle Integration.
Both places	All of the above tasks	Grant them IAM policies and service roles for Oracle Integration.
