Setting Up OCI Process Automation Proxy User

OCI Process Automation provides the framework for setting up workflow processes. This topic provides information about using the Security Console to set up a proxy user that OCI Process Automation will use for updating workflow information for Oracle Permitting and Licensing.

In this procedure, you create a user and assign the PSCR Proxy User for OIC (CUSTOM_PSCR_OIC_PROXY_USER) role to that user. The user you create is the proxy user the OCI Process Automation system uses to connect to Oracle Permitting and Licensing to exchange data during transaction processing (callback). To complete these steps, you will use Fusion Applications Security Console. Security Console enables you to create and manage roles and selected users.

For more information about using the Security Console, see Using the Security Console.

Note: In previous releases, Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC) Generation 2 handled workflow and fee processing. Beginning with Release 24B this has changed. OCI Process Automation now handles workflow and fee processing. For the time being the delivered proxy user role name still contains OIC.

To create the proxy user:

1. Navigate to the Security Console.

   To navigate to the Security Console, you have these options:

   • Click Setup and Maintenance on the Agency Springboard, and in Functional Setup Manager, click the task: Create OCI Process Automation Proxy User in the Permit Types functional area.

   • Click Setup and Maintenance on the Agency Springboard, and on the Fusion Applications home page, select Navigator > Tools > Security Console.

2. Click the Users tab.

3. On the User Accounts page, click Add User Account.

4. On the Add User Account page in the User Information section, enter a Last Name and User Name of your choice.

   The name given for the proxy user will be displayed on the Status History page of the transaction detail pages, for permits, planning applications, and so on. As such, you may want to use a generic name, such as System, Workflow, or something similar.

5. Enter a Password of your choice and confirm it.

6. Click Add Role for the Roles grid, and assign this role to your proxy user:

   • Role Name: PSCR Proxy User for OIC

   • Role Code: CUSTOM_PSCR_OIC_PROXY_USER

7. Click Save and Close.

8. Add the proxy user information to the connectors for your workflow process definitions.

   For each connector, click the Security icon on the right toolbar to add the proxy user information.

   Attention: Using the OAuth or Global Credential security type is recommended.You set up the proxy user to use the OAuth and Global Credential security type in the OCI Process Automation administrative Workspace area, where you select Credentials from the Navigator menu.
