How to Use EPM Assistants with AI Agent Studio

Use EPM Assistants to quickly create custom AI agents in AI Agent Studio that automate interactions with Oracle Fusion Cloud Enterprise Performance Management using REST APIs.

Overview

EPM Assistants are downloadable templates for creating custom AI agents that interact withCloud EPM services using REST APIs.

EPM Assistants include sample agent definitions (for instance, based on a Vision application) that you can use as a starting point to create your own custom AI Agents in AI Agent Studio.

When imported into AI Agent Studio, EPM Assistants automatically create:

  • Agent teams – Groups of collaborating agents
  • Agents – Individual AI entities performing tasks
  • Tools – API-based operations agents can execute
  • Business objects – Representations of Cloud EPM data and processes

These templates do not include application-specific configurations. You must customize them to align with your Cloud EPM business process.

AI Agent Studio

AI Agent Studio is a design-time environment in Oracle Fusion Applications where you can:

  1. Create and configure AI agents
  2. Import and extend EPM Assistants
  3. Validate agent configurations
  4. Deploy agents and multi-agent workflows

You can extend EPM Assistants or create new AI agents for your specific use cases.

Developing and customizing AI agents requires working knowledge of AI Agent Studio, including how to configure agents, tools, and workflows. See How do I use AI Agent Studio?
