How You Initialize the Security Console

You must initialize the Security Console before using it for the first time by running the process Import Users and Roles into Application Security.

The process copies users, roles, privileges, and data security policies from the LDAP directory, policy store, and Applications Core Grants schema to Oracle Cloud Applications Security tables. Having this information in the tables makes the search feature of the Security Console fast and reliable. After the process completes the first time, Oracle recommends that you schedule the process to run daily.

1. Open the Import Users and Roles into Application Security task from the Set Up Security Console and Preferences folder in the implementation project. Alternatively, you can search for the task by name in the Setup and Maintenance work area using the following:

   • Offering: Customer Data Management

   • Functional Area: Initial Users

   • Task: Import Users and Roles into Application Security

2. On the Import Users and Roles into Application Security page, click Submit.

   This action starts the Import User and Role Application Security Data process. After the process completes, you can use the Security Console.

3. Now set up this same process to run daily:

   • On the Import Users and Roles into Application Security page, click Advanced.

   • Click the Schedule tab.

   • Select the Using a schedule option.

   • From the Frequency list, select Daily.

   • Enter an end date far in the future.

   • Click Submit.
