Initiate ACL Ingestion

An ACL (Access Control List) in Oracle Search defines which users are allowed to see specific search results.

During search, Oracle Search automatically filters results based on these ACLs so users only see items they are authorized to access - such as their own assignments, workers in their hierarchy, or data allowed by their job roles and privileges. The Access Control Lists must be computed in order to properly store the detailed information which records user is authorized to access.

HCM Access Control List initial ingestion is a process which creates the required ACL index, computes the ACL for each user in the system and validates the ACL index to ensure stability.

Run this only once at initial configuration. If you have already implemented Oracle Search, there is no need to run this process again.

Note: Do this step only once when setting up data security for Oracle Search with the first implementation.
