Process Features
The following table lists the Process features that have been deprecated in August 2024.
Feature | Description | Workaround |
---|---|---|
Human tasks: Renew | When an expiration on a task is set, the renewal policy allows the expiration date to be extended until it reaches the specified amount of renewals allowed. | Consider setting up a timer boundary on the human task that will recreate a new task for the assignee once expiry is reached. |
Message throw | A message throw event is used to send data to and starts another process or external service. | Use the Send activity instead to start another process asynchronously. Use the Integration or Service Activity to communicate with an external service. |
Message catch (intermediate event) | A message catch event is used to receive data from another process or external service. | Use the Receive activity instead to receive data from another process or external service. |
Message end | Message end events are used to send messages when the process reaches an end event. | Use the Send activity right before a None End event to notify another process of completion.
Use an Integration/Service task right before a None End event to notify an external service of completion. Use async delayed response semantics (communicate process completion via Send/Service Task Activity) to address use cases previously met with a synchronous message end type. |
Insight activity | Browse Oracle Integration Generation 2 Insight models and send data to them. | Oracle Process Automation can push data to external monitoring and reporting systems to provide real-time insight into business operations. |
Attaching a form to an email notification | Allows a process designer to send a copy of the Human Task form inline or as an attachment in a notification email. | Use email templates to provide approvers with the context they need to make a decision when acting on a task. |
Dynamic process call activity | Incorporate a dynamic process within your structured process by using a Dynamic Process element | If you need to call a dynamic process from a structured process you can use a REST connector that points to an instances REST endpoint. |
Business parameters | Cross-process variables (only for structured processes) with values that can be modified without redeploying the application | You can replace business parameters with data objects, but the data objects will behave like regular variables without any way to update values after activation. Alternatively, you can implement a Decision or an Integration serving business parameter values that can be shared across process applications and updated independently. |
Event gateway | Event gateways allow you to make a decision based on events. The process will wait at the gateway until one event is triggered. | Use a timer boundary over a Receive activity to simulate situations where you need to wait for a message to arrive or a timer to expire. If the message is not received within a certain amount of time the timer boundary will fire. |
Spaces | Control access to applications via spaces, which allow certain users to access to a subset of applications | Use Oracle Integration projects in Oracle Integration Generation 2 to enforce access control rules. |
Dynamic process REST sentries | Drive conditional triggers with REST calls | Use a combination of data sentries, event sentries, and REST calls to achieve a similar outcome. |
Dynamic process DMN sentries | Drive conditional triggers with DMN calls | Use a combination of data sentries, event sentries, and DMN calls to achieve a similar outcome. |
Application, process, and task documentation and reports | Rich text editor available to process designers at the application, process, and task levels. Used to document processes and contained activities. Also used to generate process documentation reports. | Oracle Process Automation supports a description field at these levels. Short definitions can be stored in this description field. |
Visual Builder Features
This release of Visual Builder uses Oracle JET 16.1.x libraries and components. We recommend that you upgrade your Visual Builder applications to this latest JET version, as well as to the 24.10 Visual Builder Runtime, to take advantage of the full spectrum of 24.10 features. JET 16.1.x is primarily a bug fix release, but it does include some visual and behavior changes. To see a list of what's new in JET 16.1.x, go to the JET Release Notes and select v16.1.0.
You can upgrade to the latest JET and Visual Builder Runtime versions from your visual application's Settings editor. See Manage Runtime Dependencies for Visual Applications.
Some new Visual Builder features can’t be used until you’ve upgraded your Visual Builder Runtime. The Minimum Version Required column shows the runtime required to use each feature.
Feature | Description | Minimum Version Required |
---|---|---|
Dark theme for web apps | When you create a new web app using the default template, you can now customize the app's theme to show components against a dark background, instead of the default light background with dark text. You can even let your users choose between a Light and Dark theme. CSS variables to override the default Redwood look and feel are still supported—only now you make those overrides in the CSS files specific to the Light and Dark theme. See Customize a Web App's Appearance. | n/a |
Opt-in for Core Pack components |
Core Pack components, available under the Early Access category in the Components palette since 24.04, now require an opt-in if you want to use them in your application's pages. If you use these Core Pack components in your app, take note that Core Pack does not support theming at this time. The only way to theme your app is to roll back Core Pack usages in your app to Legacy components and re-implement your application. If you don't ever plan to theme your app, you can choose to enable Core Pack components in the Components palette for use in your app's pages. See Opt In to JET Core Pack Components. |
n/a |
Business rules | Business rules, which control the logic that determines what's displayed on the page at runtime, are now available for all extensions as well as visual applications. See Use Business Rules With Your Rule Sets. | n/a |
Enhanced variable and type creation | We've optimized the process of creating multiple variables and types, so each variable or type is generated with a default name. You'd then use the Properties pane to update the name and other properties as needed. See Create Variables and Create Types.
With this update, the ability to create a custom type that defines a list of enumeration values is deprecated. Instead you can create a variable, then use the Subtype option in the variable's Design Time tab to define your enumerated list. See Create Variables. |
n/a |
Enhancements for JavaScript action chains |
Note: The option to toggle between JSON and JavaScript action chains in the Action Chains tab is no longer available. This change does not impact existing JSON action chains, which you can continue to edit—but all new action chains default to JavaScript. Further, you can no longer create new tests for JSON action chains, though existing tests will continue to run. |
n/a |
New dirtyDataStatus property in vbBeforeExit payload
|
If you track changes in a variable's state to detect unsaved changes, you can now use the vbBeforeExit event listener's dirtyDataStatus payload (instead of the Get Dirty Data Status action) to check whether navigating away from a page will result in the tracked variable losing its data. See Add a Get Dirty Data Status Action.
|
n/a |
Dependent fragment property for display | When curating fragment properties for display in the Properties pane, you can now use an item's Dependent On field in the Design Time tab to specify other items that this item depends on for its data. This way, when the fragment is used on a page or container, the dependent item won't show in the Properties pane until the other items have their value. See Section Fragment Properties for Display in the Properties Pane. | n/a |
Upgrade support for imported resources | Resources that are using an older set of runtime dependencies when your app is imported can now be made compatible with the app's current runtime version. See Upgrade Imported Resources. | n/a |
Option to select existing field for M:1 and 1:1 business object relationships | A new and improved editor is now available when you create many-to-one and one-to-one relationships between business objects. Besides other improvements, the editor gives you the option of creating a new field as the referenced key (default), or selecting an existing field of the correct type. See Create a Many-To-One or One-To-One Relationship.
Many-to-many relationships continue to use the existing editor, now without the ability to change cardinality. A new + Many to Many Relationship option is also added to a business object diagram's context menu. |

Smart delete | When you delete items such as variables, types, event listeners, and action chains, Visual Builder now provides a "smart delete" functionality that detects if the item is currently used in your app, or if it has related but unused items elsewhere in the app. | 23.04 |
Offline support for PWA-enabled web apps | When you use Grunt build tasks to deploy your applications, offline support for PWA-enabled web apps is now on par with that of mobile PWAs. The Grunt-based vb-pwa task, which runs within the vb-package task, pre-caches application resources such as pages, CSS, and JavaScript files, so they are all available when a user goes offline. See vb-pwa.

23.04 |
Pages based on Redwood templates and patterns | You can now create pages based on Redwood templates and patterns to leverage high-fidelity interactions and responsive performance for your app's pages out of the box. While these templates and patterns are useful in creating pages that provide a consistent user experience across your app, it's just as easy to customize them to suit your business requirements. See Create Pages From Page Template Patterns.
It's also possible to change the page's content at the click of a new Select Page Template button. This option allows you to remove everything from the page, including associated files, but keep the same page name. See Change Page Templates. Note: To work with template patterns, the Redwood components associated with your application must be on 2301 or later. Template patterns are not available in version 2210 or earlier. |

SOAP connector |
We'll no longer support the use of SOAP connectors. Instead, use REST connectors for integrating with other applications. See Create a REST Connector in Using Processes in Oracle Integration Generation 2. Alternatively, you can configure SOAP endpoints in an integration and use the integration in a process application. |
Import Business Objects from XML Schema |
We'll no longer support the import of Business Objects from XML schema. Instead, you can import business objects based on JSON schema. See Import a Business Object from JSON in Using Processes in Oracle Integration Generation 2. If you have integrations based on SOAP and XML, consider updating them to use REST that supports JSON. |
Upload XML Schema files |
We'll no longer support the upload of new XML schema files. Instead, you can use JSON schema for your business needs. If you have integrations based on SOAP and XML, consider updating them to use REST that supports JSON. |
List View in Decisions |
We are going to deprecate List View in Decisions, and you won't be able to create decision models in List view. Instead, create decision models in Graph view as Graph view is more user friendly and helps you to visually represent your decision models with decision requirement diagrams (DRD). See Graph View in Using Processes in Oracle Integration Generation 2. |
Micro Processes |
You'll no longer be able to create and use micro processes in process applications. Instead, you can communicate between processes using service calls with REST connectors. |
Oracle Social Network (OSN) |
We'll no longer support OSN for conversations while integrating with Oracle Content Management. Instead, you can facilitate real time collaborations between specific users and task assignees by tagging them from comments in tasks. See How do I send email notifications from a comment? |
Business Intelligence Cloud Service (BICS) |
You'll no longer be able to create custom dashboards using BICS. Instead, you can analyze process data and create dashboards with Insight and Oracle Analytics Cloud. |

The Oracle Integration supports outbound invokes to execute the REST APIs. This enables you to perform Create, Update, Delete, and Query operations on the QuickBooks-exposed business resources. For example, you can create new records in QuickBooks for the modules such as Account, Bill, Customer, Payment, Invoice, and so on. See QuickBooks Adapter Capabilities in Using the QuickBooks Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2. |
22.2.2 |
Increased message payload size support | The supported message payload size for trigger and
invoke connections is 50 MB for endpoints accessed using the SOAP
Adapter, REST Adapter, SAP Adapter, File Adapter, and FTP Adapter.
This means that an external application can send XML or JSON
payloads of up to 50 MB in size to Oracle Integration.
Notes: This increase may lead to additional memory consumption in Oracle Integration. To ensure stability, it is recommended that the percentage of large payloads coming into Oracle Integration should not increase the number of total messages by more than 3%. See Service Limits in Provisioning and Administering Oracle Integration Generation 2. |
22.2.2 |
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Adapter - X509 Auth support | The SAP S/4HANA Cloud
Adapter provides support for client certificate x.509-based
authentication. You must upload your own certificate in Oracle Integration to communicate with SAP S/4HANA Cloud. This adds a layer of
security to the authorization process (access to the host) and
eliminates the risk of exposing credentials to an unknown entity.
See SAP S/4HANA Cloud Adapter Capabilities in Using the SAP S/4HANA Cloud Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2. |
22.2.2 |
Magento Commerce Cloud Adapter - Search support | The Magento Commerce Cloud
Adapter now includes search functionality. This feature allows you to
perform search operations to get single or multiple records using
customized filters. The filter values can be dynamically specified
in the mapper.
See Magento Commerce Cloud Adapter Capabilities in Using the Magento Commerce Cloud Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2. |

updated). This is achieved through Jira Webhooks, which include JQL
configuration.
See Jira Adapter Capabilities in Using the Jira Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2. |
22.2.2 |
Zendesk Adapter - Inbound trigger support | The Zendesk Adapter provides inbound support. You can configure the Zendesk Adapter as a trigger connection in an integration and process a message
from the Zendesk application to Oracle Integration when a ticket is created or updated in Zendesk.
See Zendesk Adapter Capabilities in Using the Zendesk Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2. |
22.2.2 |
Microsoft Office 365 Calendar Adapter, Microsoft Office 365 People Adapter, and Microsoft Office 365 Outlook Adapter - Graph API support | Microsoft Office 365 adapters (Microsoft
Office 365 Calendar Adapter, Microsoft Office
365 People Adapter, and Microsoft Office 365
Outlook Adapter) are among the most heavily used social and productivity adapters
in Oracle Integration. The Microsoft Office 365 Adapters have been upgraded to use the
Graph API. This is time critical because Microsoft is
decommissioning the Outlook REST APIs starting in November, 2022.
Oracle recommends that you migrate your integration flows to use the
newer Microsoft Graph APIs.
See Invoke Operations Page in Using the Microsoft Office 365 Calendar Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2, Invoke Operations Page in Using the Microsoft Office 365 People Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2, and Invoke Operations Page in Using the Microsoft Office 365 Outlook Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2. |

Among JET 12's many new features is the ability to show dynamic status indicators to your tab bar headers with new icons, badges, and metadata. There's also a new oj-message-banner
component that you can use to render brief, semi-permanent messages that communicate information in the context of the current page or actions in progress, without blocking interaction on that page. To see what's new in JET 12.0.x, go to the JET Release Notes and select v12.0.0.
Some new Visual Builder features can’t be used until you’ve upgraded your Visual Builder Runtime. The Minimum Version Required column shows the runtime required to use each feature.
Feature | Description | Minimum Version Required |
---|---|---|
Custom actions | In addition to Visual Builder's palette of built-in actions, you can now use JavaScript to define and implement your own actions. Custom actions can be defined at a web or mobile app-level and you use them in action chains just the way you'd use built-in actions. See Custom Actions. |
22.07 |
New Flow Diagram view | When working with flows in the Diagram view, a new Flow Diagram now displays navigational relationships between pages in the flow. The Flow Diagram, different from the standard Diagram view, provides a more intuitive and interactive view that allows you to focus on navigation between pages in the flow. See View a Flow's Navigation in Diagram View.
You can also use this view to create pages and actions chains when you want to build workflows from scratch, just by dragging pages and actions from the Components palette and dropping them into the diagram. A subset of built-in actions (as well as custom actions) are available in the Components palette for you to use in your workflow. See Add Pages and Action Chains to a Flow in Diagram View. |

Some new Visual Builder features can’t be used until you’ve upgraded your Visual Builder Runtime. The Minimum Version Required column shows the runtime required to use each feature.
Feature | Description | Minimum Version Required |
---|---|---|
Responsive web app templates | New web app templates are now enhanced for responsive design. Available in three navigational styles, these templates adjust to various screen sizes and provide better support for responsive layouts and progressive web apps. See Create a New Web App.
Common elements for these web apps, such as the header, footer, and navigation items, are defined in fragments, enabling you to reuse each piece in the web app's root page as well as other pages. You can also customize these elements however you want to create your own look and feel. See Edit the App Header and Footer. Note: Web apps created with version 22.01/21.10 or earlier will not be affected. These apps will maintain their original look and feel even after you upgrade them to 22.04. |
22.04 |
Support for JET's Stable theme |
When customizing a Redwood-themed application, you can now use the Stable base theme to override only what you want to change, where previously you might have had to override all variables directly in the Redwood base theme. The Stable theme (introduced in JET 11.0.0) is meant to be as stable as possible; as a result, you can override the variables you want to change while inheriting all other updates to the Redwood theme. See Customize the Redwood Theme for a Web Application. |
22.01 |
Fragments |
If you've always wanted to break up complex pages into parts that are easier to work with, fragments is for you. A fragment encapsulates a page's section in its own HTML, JSON, and JavaScript files, helping you share it across pages in an application. Besides reuse, it provides performance gains and makes for easier organization and code management. See Work With Fragments. You can add standard as well as dynamic components (including dynamic containers) to your fragment. You can also create input parameters for a fragment right from the Properties pane of the fragment container on the page where the fragment is used. See Create a Fragment. You can also create input parameters for a fragment right from the Properties pane of the fragment container on the page where the fragment is used. See Pass Data Between a Page and Its Fragment for a sample scenario. |
22.04 |
Background processing of action chain tests |
Action chain tests, accessible through the Tests tab at the bottom of an application's window, now include some usability improvements. Instead of showing a full list of tests, this tab shows failed tests alone to highlight items that require you to take action. Test results are also cached across browser sessions now to improve performance. See Test Action Chains. The tests also run in the background, even when you are not actively working on your application. If you are, only tests impacted by your changes (for example, if you added a new variable or changed an existing function) are scheduled to run again. This way, your test results stay up-to-date even as you develop your application, helping you detect bugs earlier and maintain your tests more easily. See Manage All Tests in a Visual Application. |

For example, JET 10 introduces support for rendering some components on dark backgrounds through the use of JET classes. To see everything that’s new in JET 10, see the Release Notes.
You can upgrade to the latest JET and Visual Builder Runtime versions from your visual application's Settings editor. See Manage Runtime Dependencies for Visual Applications.
Visual Builder Features
Feature | Description | Minimum Version Required |
---|---|---|
Custom theming for Redwood-based web apps | This release bundlesOracle JET 10, and with that comes the ability to customize your application's Redwood theme. You do this using CSS variables right within the Designer, though only for web applications that use the Redwood UI: From your application's Settings editor, create a separate CSS file with the default JET CSS variables, then uncomment and update the variables you want to change. See Style Visual Builder Applications and Customize the Redwood Theme for a Web Application. |
21.07.0 |
Enhanced upgrade and migration | When you upgrade your application to a newer release, Visual Builder now makes changes to your app to better align it with the new release. As a part of this migration, it provides a list of changes, so you get an idea of how your app is evolving. See Manage Runtime Dependencies for Visual Applications. |
21.07.0 |
Oracle JET Dynamic Components | You can now add dynamic tables and forms to your visual applications. Dynamic components let you control what’s displayed at runtime based on the conditions that are true for the current user or device accessing the app. For example, you might configure a dynamic table so that certain columns are hidden and others are added when the user viewing the page is a manager. Dynamic containers, which let you display your own content in regions within the container based on conditions that are evaluated at runtime, are also available in 21.07. You can install all three dynamic components from the Component Exchange; just search on “dynamic”. |
21.07.0 |
Page Designer toolbar changes | The Page Designer toolbar has a new Custom option that lets you resize the canvas to whatever size you want. The Auto option, introduced in the previous release, is now renamed as Fit to Canvas. See Page Designer Toolbar. |
21.07.0 |
Action and action chain updates |
|
21.07.0 |
Variable updates |
|
21.07.0 |
Business object changes |
|
21.07.0 |
Delete referenced business objects | It is now possible to delete business objects even when they are referenced by other business objects. When you try to delete a business object, from the Objects tab or the Diagrams tab within Business Objects, any relationships to other business objects will be shown in a confirmation dialog. If you confirm the selection, the fields referenced in the other business object will also be deleted. |
21.07.0 |
Service connection enhancements |
Last release, we gave you the option of creating a dynamic service connection to retrieve a service's OpenAPI definition from the source URL. While this option always fetches the latest service definition for your app, it may impact performance. To optimize metadata retrieval performance, we've introduced the Copy minimal OpenAPI to the application option for ADF Describe-based services like Oracle Cloud Applications. This option stores minimal service metadata locally in the application's sources, but dynamically retrieves the parameter or request/response schema whenever required. See Service Connections: Static Versus Dynamic. No matter which metadata retrieval option you choose when creating a service connection, you can now change your selection later on. See Convert a Service Connection. |
21.07.0 |
Export user-role mappings | When you export an application, its user-role mappings (as defined in user-roles.json ) are now included in the exported archive (as role-mapping.json ). When the application archive is later imported, the role mappings are also imported—as long as the app is imported to the same IDCS domain it was exported from. See Manage User Roles and Access |
21.07.0 |

Oracle HCM Cloud Adapter and Oracle ERP Cloud Adapter - Support for consuming extensible flexfields (EFFs) and descriptive flexfields (DFFs) for REST resources | Oracle Integration is a customer-preferred platform for integrating with Oracle
Fusion Applications (ERP Cloud, Engagement Cloud, and HCM Cloud).
This latest release provides even more functional enrichments to the
already feature-rich Oracle Fusion Applications adapters and
continues Oracle Integration's lead as an integration platform of choice for customers. Oracle
Fusion Applications support associating descriptive flexfields
(DFFs) or extensible flexfields (EFFs) with which you can create
custom attributes for business objects. As you define, associate,
and leverage DFF and EFF fields for enriching business objects, the
real value of enriched business objects is reaped only when the
enriched information is exchanged seamlessly to and from Oracle
Fusion Applications and the rest of the business applications in the
customer footprint. This capability has been enhanced for the Oracle ERP Cloud Adapter and Oracle HCM Cloud Adapter.
See Oracle HCM Cloud Adapter Capabilities in Using the Oracle HCM Cloud Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2 and Oracle ERP Cloud Adapter Capabilities in Using the Oracle ERP Cloud Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2. |
210129.2200.39441 |
Oracle HCM Cloud Adapter - Migration from emps to worker business for an employee Atom feed | The Oracle HCM Cloud Adapter has been enhanced to support the worker business objects for an
employee Atom feed. The Oracle HCM Cloud worker business object is
much more enriched in comparison to the emps business object.
Because a worker business object is a super set, there is no loss of
functionality. The Oracle HCM Cloud Adapter continues to support the emps business object for existing
integrations. However, a new endpoint configuration fetches the
worker business object.
See Invoke Operation Page in Using the Oracle HCM Cloud Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2. |
210129.2200.39441 |
Apache Kafka Adapter - Transactional producer support | Oracle Integration continues to invest in the Apache Kafka Adapter, enhancing the feature-rich adapter to meet your use cases. With
this latest release, the Apache Kafka Adapter now supports configuring the producer as transactional. This
enables integration architects to produce messages using the
transactional producer or a non-transactional producer depending on
their business needs.

210129.2200.39441 |
REST Adapter - Support for consumption and publication of OpenAPI with multipart/mixed and multipart/form-data | OpenAPI is a foundational cornerstone in the digital
economy used by almost all modern applications and digital
technologies and services for communicating the set of services
offered by them digitally, enabling everyone to communicate
efficiently in the digital economy. Oracle Integration already supports publishing REST Adapter trigger flows in OpenAPI
specification. However, the OpenAPI specification generated from Oracle Integration did not contain information depicting the resource request as a
multipart request. As a result, consuming clients were left unaware
about support for multipart request resources. With this latest
release, Oracle Integration now supports publishing and consuming the OpenAPI specification
that contains the required constructs for depicting the multipart
request.
See Consume and Publish OpenAPI Documents with Multipart/Mixed and Multipart/Form-Data in Using the REST Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2. |
210129.2200.39441 |
REST Adapter - Trigger connection security policy support | Oracle Integration is a versatile digital platform enabling you to expose your
integrations as REST APIs. In previous releases, these APIs were
invoked using Basic Authentication or OAuth 2.0 security
authentication schemes. In an effort to provide more robust and
secure REST resources, Oracle Integration with this latest release enables you to configure the REST Adapter trigger security authentication schemes as required to meet your
business requirements. The supported security policies for REST Adapter trigger connections are Basic Authentication, OAuth 2.0, and both
(OAuth 2.0 or Basic Authentication).

We recommend that you upgrade your Visual Builder applications to this latest JET version, as well as to the 21.04 Visual Builder Runtime, to take advantage of the full spectrum of 21.04 features. For example, in JET 9.2, new slots (Action, Navigation, and Quarternary) have been added to the List Item Layout component, making it even easier to produce great-looking content for your ListViews. To see everything that's new in JET 9.2, see the Release Notes.
Here are the features that require the 21.04 VB Runtime:
Feature | Description |
---|---|
New dynamic service connections | You can now create a service connection to dynamically retrieve the service's OpenAPI definition, instead of copying the definition and storing it as part of your visual application's sources. A dynamic service connection creates a pointer to the service definition at a remote location. This keeps your application in sync with the latest service definition and enables you to re-use external definitions that aren't customized for your app. See Service Connections: Static Versus Dynamic. |
Declarative support to create custom types from code | It's now much easier to use your own type, such as a type class written in JavaScript or a typescript class, with a variable in Visual Builder. Using a new From Code option in the Types editor, you can import your type definition to declaratively plug in any Oracle JET type class or a custom type class and create an instance of that type class, then use it with a new category of variable known as an InstanceFactory variable.

Apache Kafka Adapter - Inbound polling support | Apache Kafka is one of the modern pillars in
enterprise's big data and digital ecosystem today, where large
volumes of messages are ingested and consumed for depicting the
state of business at a rapid pace. The Apache Kafka Adapter already supports a wide array of use cases such as publishing
messages to specific topics and partitions, consuming messages from
specific consumer groups, and reading from the beginning/latest
topic. With this release, the Apache Kafka Adapter now allows integration architects to poll for messages in the
Kafka system by configuring the Kafka connection as a trigger in an
integration flow. Note that inbound polling configuration is only
supported for the Kafka platform hosted behind a corporate firewall
or on a private VCN network, along with the connectivity agent. This
enables you to consume a high volume of messages from the Kafka
topic and consume them in the integration flow.
See Apache Kafka Adapter Capabilities in Using the Apache Kafka Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2. |
20.4.2.0.0 (201009.0200.37961) |
Apache Kafka Adapter - Confluent platform support | The Apache Kafka Adapter now supports integrating with Kafka hosted on the Confluent
platform. Confluent Cloud is a widely-used event streaming platform
powered by Kafka that enables you to leverage Apache Kafka in a
fully managed, scalable, and serverless architecture in the cloud.
See Configure Confluent Kafka with the Apache Kafka Adapter in Using the Apache Kafka Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2. |

Oracle NetSuite Adapter - TBA Authorization Flow security policy support | The Oracle NetSuite Adapter has enhanced its concurrency limit. This means you receive a high
concurrency limit when integrating with Oracle NetSuite using Oracle
Integration, regardless of your Oracle NetSuite license. The
enhanced concurrency limit is applicable only for invokes performed
through connections created using the new TBA Authorization Flow
security policy introduced in the Oracle NetSuite Adapter. The TBA Authorization Flow security policy provides multiple
benefits to customers:
See Oracle NetSuite Adapter Capabilities in Using the Oracle NetSuite Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2 and Oracle Integration November 2020 update for Oracle Applications Adapters. |
20.4.2.0.0 (201009.0200.37961) |
Oracle NetSuite Adapter - Support for Initialize / InitializeList operations | Oracle Integration continues to invest in the Oracle NetSuite Adapter, further integrating with Oracle NetSuite application
capabilities to meet customer needs and simplifying access and
thereby addressing wider use cases. One such enhancement available
with this release is support for the Initialize / InitializeList
operations. This is a very powerful feature for integration
architects because they do not need to populate the records from
scratch. Instead, they can prepopulate the records from the
reference objects. For example, if you are designing a flow to
initiate a cash refund, the refund is now against the cash sale. The
Oracle NetSuite Adapter allows you to initialize the cash refund record from the cash
sale, where the cash sale is a reference object and details such as
createdfrom, line items, and amount are prepopulated.
See Invoke Operation Page in Using the Oracle NetSuite Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2 and Oracle Integration November 2020 update for Oracle Applications Adapters. |
20.4.2.0.0 (201009.0200.37961) |
REST Adapter - Generation of sample cURL command
|
The REST Adapter is a versatile adapter that enables customers to communicate with
a wide array of products and services such as Oracle Functions, OCI
Object storage, AWS S3, and so on, making it one of the cornerstone
adapters for your modern integration solutions. As you look to
leverage the REST Adapter for integrating with a wide array of products and services, you
have a variety of available configuration options such as security
policy, headers, parameters, and so on. As these options are
configured at different stages, they get lost and you can lose
visibility into the configuration. Oracle Integration addresses this
need by providing an option in the Adapter Endpoint Configuration
Wizard Summary page to generate the sample cURL
command.
See REST Adapter Capabilities in Using the REST Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2. |
20.4.2.0.0 (201009.0200.37961) |
REST Adapter - Standard OAuth policy improvements | The REST Adapter supports a variety of OAuth security policies out of the box (for
example, OAuth Client Credentials, OAuth Resource Owner Password
Credentials, and OAuth Authorization Code Credentials). One
challenge is that different vendors have implemented these policies
in different ways because the OAuth specification defines a high
level exchange of information between participating parties. This
leaves the details of implementation on the implementer. Oracle
Integration is looking to support as many vendors as possible and
still make it simple for customers to connect to and communicate
with all the digital REST services using the supported OAuth
security policy. With this in mind, the REST Adapter now supports an additional configuration parameter called Client
Authentication on the Connections page. The client authentication
parameters enable you to configure how Oracle Integration exchanges
security tokens over the wire (for example, whether the client ID
and secret are sent as a part of the basic authentication header or
in the body).
See Configure Connection Security for Invoke Connections in Using the REST Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2. |
20.4.2.0.0 (201009.0200.37961) |
REST Adapter - Connectivity properties improvements | The REST Adapter is used for a wide variety of use cases, and requires additional
flexibility such as querying and overriding the connectivity
properties such as base URI, relative URI, or even absolute endpoint
URI. This helps you to address scenarios in which you want to
conditionally change endpoints based on the received payload. The
REST Adapter already supports connectivity properties for the invoke endpoint.
However, in previous releases, it supported only the request side.
With this release, the REST Adapter supports connectivity properties for the invoke response, trigger
request, and response: all four possible interactions. As an
example, you want to pass the location for the next integration flow
in the response of the current trigger flow. This can be achieved
now by referring to the trigger REST resource base URI along with
XSLT functions to formulate the location of the next integration
flow.
See Set REST Adapter Connectivity Properties in the Mapper in Using the REST Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2. |
20.4.2.0.0 (201009.0200.37961) |
Salesforce Adapter - Enablement for Salesforce Government Cloud customers | The Salesforce Adapter was recently enhanced to eliminate the need to upload the
enterprise WSDL on the Connections page. With this enhancement,
customers who were using the Salesforce Government Cloud were unable
to create new connections due to login considerations, as mentioned
in this help document.
With this release, the Salesforce Adapter provides support for creating a connection with the
Salesforce.com application that can integrate with Salesforce
Government Cloud.

20.4.2.0.0 (201009.0200.37961) |
Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse Adapter, Oracle Autonomous Transaction Processing Adapter, and Oracle Database Cloud Service Adapter - Support for wallet-based authentication with privately hosted databases | In previous releases, when connecting to a privately
hosted database using Autonomous Database - Dedicated (Oracle
Autonomous Transaction Processing - Dedicated or Oracle Autonomous
Data Warehouse - Dedicated) or Oracle Database Cloud Service with
the connectivity agent, the only supported security option was JDBC
Basic Authentication. With this release, you can also specify JDBC
over SSL. This allows you to connect to a privately-hosted cloud
database and leverage wallet-based authentication.
See Configure Connection Security in Using the Oracle Autonomous Transaction Processing Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2, Configure Connection Security in Using the Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2, Configure Connection Security in Using the Oracle Database Cloud Service Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2 and Security Improvements for Database & FTP Adapters. |
20.4.2.0.0 (201009.0200.37961) |
Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse Adapter, Oracle Autonomous Transaction Processing Adapter, and Oracle Database Cloud Service Adapter - Automatic database wallet and password refresh | Oracle Wallet can be used to securely store your
database credentials. Wallet rotation provides the ability to create
a new wallet and invalidate the existing wallet. When the wallet is
rotated or expires (or if using Basic Authentication and the
database password is changed), a corresponding change is required in
the Oracle Integration connection for that database. Once the
connection is modified in Oracle Integration, you needed to
deactivate and reactivate the integrations that used that
connection. This sometimes meant that hundreds of integrations
required reactivation, which was very impractical. With this
release, it is no longer necessary to deactivate and reactivate the
integrations. However, you still need to update the Connections page
with a new wallet password, as applicable.

20.4.2.0.0 (201009.0200.37961) |
Oracle Autonomous Transaction Processing Adapter - Support for connecting with a serverless (ATP-S) database configured with a private endpoint | The Oracle Autonomous Transaction Processing (ATP)
database is becoming more widely adopted, along with its use within
integration flows using Oracle Integration. When configuring your
database, you can specify that it uses a private endpoint within
your VCN of your tenancy. This allows you to keep all traffic to and
from your database off the public internet. When using the Oracle Autonomous Transaction Processing
Adapter in Oracle Integration to connect to an ATP instance using a
private endpoint, you must set up the connectivity agent.

20.4.2.0.0 (201009.0200.37961) |
PayPal Adapter - Inbound support and new modules | PayPal is a global payment provider that enables
vendors to receive payments digitally from their customers and make
payments to their suppliers. The PayPal Adapter enables you to create an integration with a PayPal application in
Oracle Integration. With this release, the PayPal Adapter provides inbound support. This means it can be configured as a
trigger connection in an integration for the events related to the
Billing, Invoicing, Payment, Checkout, and Catalog modules.
Furthermore, the PayPal Adapter has been enhanced to support the Transaction Search,
Subscriptions, Add Tracking, and Invoicing modules.
See PayPal Adapter Capabilities in Using the PayPal Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2 and Oracle Integration - Adapter Enhancements to Non Oracle Applications. |
20.4.2.0.0 (201009.0200.37961) |
FTP Adapter - Message payload security capabilities with privately-hosted SFTP servers | When integrating with an FTP server that is hosted
on-premises behind a firewall, you configure a connectivity agent in
Oracle Integration to establish connectivity. In previous releases,
there were certain security-related options that were not available
when using the FTP Adapter with the connectivity agent. In particular:
The above options can now be leveraged with the connectivity agent while communicating with the privately-hosted SFTP server. See FTP Adapter Capabilities in Using the FTP Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2 and Security Improvements for Database & FTP Adapters. |
20.4.2.0.0 (201009.0200.37961) |
Oracle ERP Cloud Adapter, Oracle CX Sales and B2B Service Adapter, and Oracle HCM Cloud Adapter - Selectively pick child REST resources | The Oracle Fusion Application adapters are key
strategic adapters for Oracle Integration. Oracle Integration
continues to update these adapters with features to meet your needs
and improve the overall adapter experience. One improvement with
this release is the ability to selectively pick child REST
resources. This enables you to pick and chose the child resources
needed for your businesses. Without this feature, you would have all
child resources in the integration artifacts, resulting in an
unmanageable number of elements to traverse through in the mapper
and unnecessary loads at runtime.
See Oracle ERP Cloud Adapter Capabilities in Using the Oracle ERP Cloud Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2, Oracle Engagement Cloud Adapter Capabilities in Using the Oracle CX Sales and B2B Service Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2, Oracle HCM Cloud Adapter Capabilities in Using the Oracle HCM Cloud Adapter with Oracle Integration Generation 2, and Oracle Integration November 2020 update for Oracle Applications Adapters. |

Oracle Taleo Enterprise Edition Adapter - Bulk export support | Oracle Talent Acquisition Cloud is the world's most
widely used recruitment platform. Oracle Talent Acquisition Cloud
customers conventionally perform bulk import-based and bulk
export-based integrations to update data in Oracle Talent
Acquisition Cloud and extract updated data from Oracle Talent
Acquisition Cloud. The current Oracle Taleo Enterprise Edition
Adapter already supports performing bulk import of records to load/update
the data into Oracle Talent Acquisition Cloud instances. With this
feature, the Oracle Taleo Enterprise Edition
Adapter now also supports performing bulk export to get data from Oracle
Talent Acquisition Cloud. As an example, you may want to export new
hires information and import the same information into your HRMS
systems.

Multi-operation Integration support |
In Oracle Integration, integrations were recently expanded to expose multiple operations that can trigger them. Multi-endpoints means multiple resources and operation available in an integration, so we've added support for multi-operation REST integrations in processes. In a process application, we read and create all the resources, operations, and types (representing the payload) that the integration exposes and allow you to choose which one to call in each activity. See Expose Multiple Operations with a Pick Action in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration Generation 2. |
20.2.3.0.0 (200705.0200.36413) |
