How to Begin with DaaS Subscriptions

Here's a summary of the key steps to get Oracle Account Enrichment and Oracle Contact Enrichment subscriptions provisioned in an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) data center.

  1. Order a subscription for DaaS.

    DaaS includes Oracle Account Enrichment for company data and Oracle Contact Enrichment for contact data. For more information on subscriptions, see Understand DaaS Subscriptions and FAQ — Subscriptions.

    For details about ordering and activating your subscription, see Order Oracle Cloud Applications in Getting Started with Oracle Cloud Applications.

  2. Add subscription to your Oracle Cloud account.

    You'll receive an email titled “Action Required: Welcome to Oracle Cloud. Please Add Your Subscription(s) to a Cloud Account to Get Started.” Follow the instructions in the email:

    • If you have an Oracle Cloud account, then click the Activate into Existing Cloud Account button. We recommend using your existing Oracle Cloud account to manage all your Oracle services.

    • If you're a new customer, then click the Create New Cloud Account button.

  3. Activate your service.

    You'll receive a second email titled “Action Required: Please Activate Your Services.” In the email, under Access Details, click the Create Instance button.

    Sign in with the temporary password listed in the email. You'll be prompted to change this password. (Temporary passwords expire after 60 days. Contact Oracle Support if you need to request a new password.)

  4. Create the Data environment.

    1. On the Oracle Cloud Dashboard, click Create Instance.

    2. You'll see a list of services that can be provisioned. Click Create for the Data service. Data is the cloud service instance that hosts both DaaS and Address Verification.

    3. Enter a name for this instance, confirm your administrator, then click Create.

    4. Click Create again, to confirm the instance details.

  5. You (or the person you designated as the administrator) will receive an email titled “Action Required: Your new Data as a Service instance in Cloud Account is ready."

    In the email, click Access Your New Service.

    On the Oracle Cloud Console, click the Data application to see the URLs for the DaaS UI and API.

Note: To associate another Oracle Cloud service with both Address, Email, and Phone Verification and Account and Contact Enrichment, they must be part of the same service instance; that is, both services must be part of the same subscription order. For example, if you order Account Enrichment first and later add Address Verification, then you must upgrade your Account Enrichment subscription to include Address Verification, or vice-verse. Account and Contact Enrichment and Address, Email, and Phone Verification cannot be on separate service instances when associating them with the same instance of another Oracle Cloud service.
