Accessing Profiler

Work with your sales organization to determine the best method for accessing Oracle Profiler. You can use any of the following methods:

  • Integrate Profiler with your CRM
    This would allow sales users to access Profiler directly from the CRM. You can embed Profiler as a tab, link to it as a button, etc. Learn more.
  • Direct link
    This is a customizable link you can use to launch Profiler directly.
  • Use the Oracle Eloqua Sales Tools for Microsoft Outlook add-in
    This is an add-in that your users can install on their own or your IT department can deploy to an entire organization. See Oracle Eloqua Sales Tools for Microsoft Outlook .
  • Oracle Eloqua Sales Tools for Google Chrome
    The Google Chrome extension allows sales representatives to access Profiler from their Google Chrome browser. For example, while browsing prospect websites, the sales rep can open the extension to review Eloqua contacts at that company. Reps can also access Engage directly from the extension. Learn more.

Note: Before you can access Profiler, an Eloqua administrator must install the app in your Oracle Eloqua instance. Once installed, the customer administrator can customize the options that Profiler provides. Learn more about installing and configuring Profiler.

Profiler URLs

To access Profiler , you can use one of the following types of URLs: 

  • A simplified login URL that will handle all login flows based on the user logging in and your Oracle Eloqua configuration. Using this URL, if you have SSO configured for the instance and user, then the user will be redirected to your default identity provider login screens. If you don't have SSO, the user will be prompted for their user name and password. Learn more.

  • A legacy login URL that is specific to the desired login flow and security model at your organization. There is a separate login URL for auto-login, SAML login, or CVP login. Auto-login and SAML are options that support Single Sign-On (SSO). Salesforce IDP is an option for Salesforce SSO logins. Direct login is for logging in directly through Eloqua. Learn more.

Simplified login URL

To access the Profileremail composer using the simplified login URL:

https://login.eloqua.com/siteLogin?SiteName={CompanyName}&ReturnUrl=/apps/salesTools/profiler

https://login.eloqua.com/siteLogin?SiteName={CompanyName}&ReturnUrl=/apps/embed/salesTools/profiler

The following table describes the supported URL parameters you can use to further customize the login experience. In addition, you can also add additional Profiler URL parameters to customize the compose experience. Learn more about Profiler URL parameters.

Parameter Description
SiteName={companyName}

Optional

Your instance company name. When provided, users are not prompted to provide a company name. If the user has an existing session, they will then be logged in automatically.

Example:

https://login.eloqua.com/siteLogin?SiteName=ExampleSiteName
ReturnUrl={Url}

Optional

The Oracle Eloqua URL to redirect to after logging in.

You must provide the SiteName parameter if you want to use this parameter.

Checkframe={true or false}

Optional

Checks if the login page is being accessed from within an iframe and create a popup window if it is.

  • true checks for the frame.

  • false does not check for the frame. If the result is a displayable page that cannot be viewed in an iframe, then the user will get a block from their browser. Use only if it can be guaranteed the current user is already authenticated with the default SSO used by Oracle Eloqua to skip the popup.

Example:

Checkframe while logging into Engage:

https://login.eloqua.com/siteLogin?SiteName=ExampleSiteName&CheckFrame=true&ReturnUrl=/apps/salesTools/engage/compose
UseDefaultSSO={true or false}

Example:

Checkframe while logging into Engage:

https://login.eloqua.com/siteLogin?UseDefaultSSO=true
Idp={IdentityProviderId}

Optional

The ID for the identity provider you want to use. Use this parameter if you have multiple identity providers configured for your Oracle Eloqua instance and you want to use a non-default identity provider. You can retrieve the identity provider ID from the SSO identity provider screens. Learn more.

You must provide the SiteName parameter if you want to use this parameter.

Example:

https://login.eloqua.com/siteLogin?SiteName=ExampleSiteName&Idp=69627DAC73E04DE79CDFC90D132B65EA
Username={username}&Password={encryptedPassword}

The user name and encrypted password. The password parameter is encrypted. To retrieve the encrypted version of the user password, you must open a Service Request with Oracle Support.

You must provide the SiteName parameter if you want to use the user name and password parameters.

Legacy login URLs

The following lists the legacy login URLs to access to Profiler based on the desired login methods. These URLs continue to be supported. The URL you use depends on the security model implemented at your organization. Auto-login and SAML are options that support Single Sign-On (SSO). Salesforce IDP is an option for Salesforce SSO logins. Direct login is for logging in directly through Eloqua.

The following lists the URLs to access the Profiler search page based on these login methods:

  • Direct: https://login.eloqua.com/apps/salesTools/profiler
    • Embedded: https://login.eloqua.com/apps/embed/salesTools/profiler
  • Autologin: https://login.eloqua.com/autoLogin?LoginPrefix={Login_Prefix}&Url=/apps/salesTools/profiler
    • Embedded: https://login.eloqua.com/autoLogin?LoginPrefix={Login_Prefix}&Url=/apps/embed/salesTools/profiler
  • SAML: https://login.eloqua.com/auth/saml2/autologin?LoginPrefix={Login_Prefix}&ReturnUrl=/apps/salesTools/profiler
    • Embedded: https://login.eloqua.com/auth/saml2/autologin?LoginPrefix={Login_Prefix}&ReturnUrl=/apps/embed/salesTools/profiler
  • SFDC IDP: https://{podURL}/sso/sfdc/v1/svp.aspx?LP={Login_Prefix}&RU=/apps/salesTools/profiler
    • Embedded: https://{podURL}/sso/sfdc/v1/svp.aspx?LP={Login_Prefix}&RU=/apps/embed/salesTools/profiler

    Replace {podURL} with the URL in your browser after you have logged in successfully to Eloqua (for example, secure.p01.eloqua.com). Click here for additional information about how to determine your pod.

LoginPrefix values are a unique four-character code for your Eloqua instance. To add this parameter to your URL, enter LoginPrefix={prefix} where {prefix} is replaced with the four-character company name. You can obtain your company's login prefix in Eloqua by navigating to Settings > Display Preferences > Company Defaults.

Tip: If you are using Microsoft Edge or Sales Tools for Microsoft Outlook to access the Oracle Eloqua sign in page in an iframe, an addition should be made to trusted sites. Add https://*.eloqua.com and the URL of the site where the login page (Oracle Eloqua and/or Sales Tools) is being iframed. The browser must be closed fully and restarted before the change is recognized. For additional information, see this Topliners post about Oracle Eloqua login enhancements.
