Example of Creating Oracle Process Automation Tasks in Journeys

In this example, you are creating Oracle Process Automation (OPA) tasks for the worker uniform request process in your organization.

The OPA task includes two sub-tasks. The first task is to initiate the process request and a second to check the status. So, you create two separate tasks, include it in a journey, and assign it to the respective task performers.

Before You Start

• Create and activate the process application and processes in OPA.
• Configure and validate the integration in the Setup and Maintenance work area in HCM Cloud.
