Manage Permission for Manual Access to Database (v2)

Use this REST API (v2) to manage permission for manual access to database by Oracle.

This gives you the ability to allow or disallow Oracle personnel to manually access your database in emergency situations when an environment is unresponsive and you have not yet created a service request to investigate the issue.

In an emergency situation, Oracle follows an internal process whereby a high-level development executive, after an independent verification process, permits manual access to the database without your explicit approval. You can also prohibit Oracle from manually accessing the EPM Cloud database, even if a service request to remedy a database issue is open.

This API is version v2

Required Roles

Service Administrator

REST Resource

PUT /interop/rest/v2/services/setmanualdataaccess

Note:

Before using the REST resources, you must understand how to access the REST resources and other important concepts. See Implementation Best Practices for EPM Cloud REST APIs. Using this REST API requires prerequisites. See Prerequisites.

The following table summarizes the request parameters.

Table 10-12 Parameters

Name Description Type Required Default
accessType Allow or revoke the manual access to database by Oracle, where the value can be allow or revoke Payload Yes None
parameters        
disableEmergencyAccess Whether to prohibit all manual access to the database. The possible values are true and false. Setting this parameter value to true stops Oracle from manually accessing the database even if a service request is open. Oracle does not recommend setting this parameter value to true because Oracle cannot access the database if access is required to troubleshoot and fix a down environment. If the environment is down, you will not be able to issue this REST API to allow Oracle to manually access the database. Payload No False
