Administrative Tasks

As an administrator, you’ll perform tasks to get Oracle Content Management up and running, as well as tasks to manage it and keep it running smoothly.

Note:

This topic assumes you’ve been assigned the necessary role to add users and configure the service. See your Cloud account administrator if you need to have your role changed.
For information on how to get to the interfaces listed in the table, see Administrative Interfaces.
Oracle is in the process of updating Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) regions to switch from Identity Cloud Service (IDCS) to Identity and Access Management (IAM) identity domains. All new Oracle Cloud accounts will automatically use IAM identity domains. Depending on whether your region uses IAM identity domains or not, you'll use different documentation to manage users, groups, and access. If your region has been updated, follow the steps marked IAM. If your region hasn't been updated, follow the steps marked IDCS.

The following table lists administrative tasks with links to the associated documentation, the interface in which you perform them, and the role you need to complete each task.
