Common Features

Feature Description Minimum Version Required

Connect to private resources

You can now secure the traffic to private resources that are in your virtual cloud network (VCN) using a private endpoint. With a private endpoint, all traffic goes through a private channel that is set up within Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and never goes over the public internet.

Integration and Connectivity Features

Feature Description Minimum Version Required

JDK 11 use with the connectivity agent

After November 15, 2023, Oracle Integration 3 connectivity agents running on JDK 11 will no longer be supported, and automatic upgrade will no longer be available for these connectivity agents. Upgrade to JDK 17. See System Requirements in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration 3.

Integration project enhancements

Integration projects continue to be enhanced with new features:

  • You can control the users and groups that edit, view, and monitor a project with role-based access control (RBAC). You select who can access a set of project resources while restricting (or hiding) those same resources from others (for example, providing an HCM group of users with access to some project resources while restricting an ERP group of users from accessing those same project resources). See Control Who Can Edit, View, and Monitor in a Project in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration 3.
  • You can clone projects and lookups. See Clone a Project and Clone a Lookup in a Project in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration 3.
  • You can add a for-each action to an extension group and add an extension group after an invoke connection. See Extend an Integration in an Accelerator Project in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration 3.

23.06

Large payload support

The supported sizes for payloads have increased for the following adapters:

  • The REST and SOAP SaaS-based adapters, Oracle Autonomous Transaction Processing Adapter, Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse Adapter, Oracle Database Cloud Service Adapter, and FTP Adapter in the cloud can process 100 MB structured payloads and 50 MB payloads with the connectivity agent.
  • The stage file action can process 100 MB structured payloads.
  • Exceptions:
    • Non-Oracle database adapters can support 10 MB structured payloads for both the connectivity agent and the cloud.
    • Messaging adapters such as IBM MQ Series JMS Adapter, Oracle WebLogic JMS Adapter, Oracle Advanced Queuing (AQ) Adapter, Apache Kafka Adapter, and others can support 10 MB structured payloads.

See Service Limits in Provisioning and Administering Oracle Integration 3.

23.06

Private endpoints - Adapter support

You can configure the REST Adapter, FTP Adapter, Oracle CPQ Adapter (REST-based APIs only), Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse Adapter, Oracle Autonomous Transaction Processing Adapter, and Oracle Database Cloud Service Adapter to connect to endpoints using a private virtual cloud network (VCN).

See Configure the Endpoint Access Type in Using the REST Adapter with Oracle Integration 3, Configure the Endpoint Access Type in Using the FTP Adapter with Oracle Integration 3, Configure the Endpoint Access Type Using the Oracle CPQ Adapter with Oracle Integration 3, Configure the Endpoint Access Type in Using the Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse Adapter with Oracle Integration 3, Configure the Endpoint Access Type in Using the Oracle Autonomous Transaction Processing Adapter with Oracle Integration 3, and Configure the Endpoint Access Type in Using the Oracle Database Cloud Service Adapter with Oracle Integration 3.

23.06
Publishing and subscribing to events in integrations

You can create events in Oracle Integration and then publish those events in integrations. Once published, you can create an integration that subscribes to the events.

See Create Integrations to Publish and Subscribe to Events and Publish Events in an Integration with a Publish Event Action in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration 3.

23.06
Observability section enhancements

The Observability section continues to be enhanced with new features:

23.06

Self-diagnosing Oracle Fusion Applications business event delivery - user interface enhancements
The Fusion Applications page has been updated with the following enhancements:
  • The Name column shows the connection name and its Oracle Fusion Applications hostname that was specified in the Properties section of the Connections page. This enables you to identify the host on which the event was generated.
  • The Project id column shows the name of the project to which a connection belongs. If the connection is not part of any project (known as a connection that is globally available), the column cell is empty.

See Diagnose and Manage Event-Based Oracle Fusion Applications Integrations in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration 3.

23.06

Wait action - Synchronous integration support

You can add a wait action to a synchronous integration.

See Delay Integration Processing for a Specified Time Period with a Wait Action in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration 3.

23.06
Oracle Autonomous Transaction Processing Adapter, Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse Adapter, and Oracle Database Cloud Service Adapter - Inbound polling support without the connectivity agent
You can poll Oracle Autonomous Transaction Processing, Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse, Oracle Database Cloud Service databases without use of the connectivity agent. Polling capabilities remain unchanged from previous releases, apart from connectivity agent selection on the Connections page.
  • If the database to access is behind a firewall, you must first configure private endpoint support in the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and then select Private endpoint on the Connections page to poll without the connectivity agent.
  • If the database to access is public, private endpoint configuration is not required and the adapter polls directly without the connectivity agent. See Connect to Private Resources in Provisioning and Administering Oracle Integration 3.

Note: The FTP Adapter, Oracle CPQ Adapter, and REST Adapter do not support inbound polling with private endpoints.

See Perform Inbound Database Polling Without the Connectivity Agent in Using the Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse Adapter with Oracle Integration 3, Perform Inbound Database Polling Without the Connectivity Agent in Using the Oracle Autonomous Transaction Processing Adapter with Oracle Integration 3, and Perform Inbound Database Polling Without the Connectivity Agent in Using the Oracle Database Cloud Service Adapter with Oracle Integration 3.

23.06
OData Adapter enhancements
The OData Adapter provides the following new features with this release:
  • On-premises support with the connectivity agent
  • JSON and ATOM-XML message formats support
  • Custom queries support with the Query operation
  • User interface enhancements

See OData Adapter Capabilities in Using the OData Adapter with Oracle Integration 3.

23.06
IBM DB2 Adapter - AS400 support

The IBM DB2 Adapter is certified on AS400.

See the Connectivity Certification Matrix.

23.06
Oracle Hospitality Adapter enhancements

The Oracle Hospitality Adapter endpoint configuration provides a new level of useability in which the available operations and their business objects are mapped dynamically according to what's available in OPERA Cloud for that user/application. You no longer need to specify JSON sample messages for request/response and endpoint URLs are no longer required.

See Add the Oracle Hospitality Adapter Connection to an Integration in Using the Oracle Hospitality Adapter with Oracle Integration 3.
