  1. On the Configuration Editor page, click Activate in the title bar. In the Activate Package dialog, click Activate again.

    4. From the external application, send a POST request to this endpoint URL along with the required file. Upload the file in the POST request's Body field.
      You'll receive the status code 202 as a response in your application, which indicates that Oracle Integration has accepted your request. When the integration flow receives the request, it sends the file to the recipient email address specified in the lookup table.
