REST API to Export Data Without a Job Definition

You can now use a REST API to export data without a job definition. The API uses the parameter values provided without an explicit predefined export data job definition. The file containing the exported data is stored in the repository.

Exporting data supports substitution variables. You can use substitution variables while providing the rowMembers, columnMembers, and povMembers definitions.

Business Benefit: The new feature in this REST API allows you to automate the task of exporting data without creating a job definition.

Steps to Enable

Review the REST service definition in the REST API guides to leverage (available from the Oracle Help Center > your apps service area of interest > APIs & Schema). If you are new to Oracle's REST services you may want to begin with the Quick Start section.
