Create a Child Backend for the Oracle Cloud Applications Backend
The process for creating a child backend based on the Oracle Cloud Applications backend is slightly different, as the parent and the child backends are in different extensions.
To create a child backend for the Oracle Cloud Applications backend:
- Open the Backends tab from the Services tab in the Navigator.
- Click the + sign for the top-level Oracle Cloud Applications backend:
- Select Custom ADF Describe to create a backend with an ADF Describe URL. For a backend that doesn't have a Describe URL, select Custom.
- Enter a name and description for the child backend. Optionally, to add custom static headers, click + Add Header. To add a static header that won't be available in the browser and will only be inserted at the server, click + Add Header under Secure Headers. Secure headers are useful when you want to apply a credential to a header without it being available in the browser.
- Click Next.
- For Instance URL, enter the rest of the path for your new backend after the slash (/) that follows the grayed out portion of the parent.
Click the Info icon to see the complete URL that the backend resolves to.
- Enter other settings, as needed.
- Click Create.
