Connect with Your Oracle Eloqua Data Source (Preview)

If you’ve subscribed for Oracle Fusion CX Analytics and want to load data from your Oracle Eloqua source into Fusion Data Intelligence, then create a connection using the Eloqua connection type.

The Oracle Eloqua data that you load into Fusion Data Intelligence enables you to augment the data in your warehouse and create varied customer experience-related analytics. Ensure that Oracle Eloqua is enabled on the Enable Features page prior to creating this connection. See Make Preview Features Available.

2. On the Data Configuration page, click Manage Connections under Global Configurations.
3. On the Manage Connections page, click Create and then click Connection.

7. Verify that the Refresh Metadata toggle is enabled to ensure that the metadata is refreshed when you save the connection.
   You can later refresh the metadata from the Actions menu on the Manage Connections page, if required.

   You can’t create augmentations for Eloqua unless you perform a metadata extract.
8. Click Save.
9. On the Manage Connections page, select Actions for the Eloqua connection and then select Test Connection.
