Process Description for Using OAuth 2.0 Authorization

At a high level the following steps show you how to set up OAuth 2.0 authorization for the EPM Integration Agent.

To set up the OAuth 2.0:

  1. Register the application as a public client—An Identity Domain Administrator registers an application as a public client in Oracle Cloud Identity Services. The domain administrator provides this authorization by registering a client and providing the appropriate registration information to the clients' users. OAuth2 is enforced for the application; not across your subscription.

    For more information, see Registering an Application as a Public Client in Oracle Cloud Identity Services.

  2. Configure the EPM Integration Agent agentparams.ini—Enable OAuth authentication for the EPM Integration Agent, specify the client identification generated when the Identity Domain Administrator configures the mobile application for OAuth, and specify the Cloud URL and EPM_APP_DATA_HOME.

    For more information, see Enabling the OAUTH Option in the EPM Integration Agent.

  3. Regenerate Tokens— Run the createoauthtoken.bat file (for Windows) or createoauthtoken.sh (for Linux) to have the system regenerate the access token and refresh token automatically.

    For more information, see Running the createoauthtoken.bat or createoauthtoken.sh File to Generate Tokens.
