Obtain Account Information
From your account administrator, obtain a user name and password for your Oracle Content Management account. Ensure that you have the appropriate log-in credentials for creating, managing, and deleting Oracle Content Management instances.
Install cURL
The examples within this document use the cURL command-line tool to demonstrate how to access the REST API for Webhooks Management.
To connect securely to the server, you must install a version of cURL that supports SSL and provide an SSL certificate authority (CA) certificate file or bundle to authenticate against the Verisign CA certificate. For more information, see these topics:
-
In your browser, navigate to the cURL home page at http://curl.haxx.se and click Download in the left navigation menu.
-
On the cURL Releases and Downloads page, locate the SSL-enabled version of the cURL software that corresponds to your operating system, click the link to download the ZIP file, and install the software.
-
Navigate to the cURL CA Certs page at http://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html and download the ca-bundle.crt SSL CA certificate bundle in the folder where you installed cURL.
-
Open a command window, navigate to the directory where you installed cURL, and set the cURL environment variable,
CURL_CA_BUNDLE
, to the location of an SSL certificate authority (CA) certificate bundle. For example:C:\curl> set CURL_CA_BUNDLE=ca-bundle.crt
You are now ready to send requests to Oracle Content Management using cURL.
