Get started with the App Developer Framework

The Oracle Eloqua app developer framework is designed to make it easy to start working with the framework with minimal setup effort required. Once you have registered as a provider and ensured that your Eloqua user has sufficient permissions, you are ready to start developing an app!

Requirements

  • An Eloqua instance in which you have registered as a provider.

    Note: If you are an external partner and want to publish your app on the Oracle CX Marketplace, see Becoming a Partner and Planning App Development to learn how to submit your app proposal before requesting an Eloqua Sandbox.

  • Sufficient user permissions: the user making calls against Eloqua's APIs must have Advanced Users - Marketing permissions granted in the security groups section of the user management area of Eloqua.
