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 New Oracle Cloud Service Subscription(s).” Follow the instructions in the email:

    • If you have an Oracle Cloud account, then click the Add to existing cloud account button. We recommend using your existing Oracle Cloud account to manage all your Oracle services.

      1. Specify your cloud Tenant name and click Continue
      2. Specify your username and password and click Sign In.

        The Add Subscription page is displayed.

      3. Add the new subscription to your tenancy. This page indicates the subscription name, subscription ID, and subscription description (with product SKU).
        Note: Adding a subscription to a tenancy can't be done.

    • If you're a new customer, then click the Create new cloud account button. The New Cloud Account Information sign up form is displayed.

      1. Specify your First name, Last name, and Email address. The email address is also the username for signing into the account. The person you specify here is the first administrator who can access the account and can create other users. This role also has full administrator permissions in your account.
      2. Specify a password and confirm.
      3. Specify a Tenancy Name. This is also called your cloud account name. When choosing a tenancy name, note the following:
        • The tenancy name or cloud account name is used to identify your account. The name is also used to create the URLs to access your cloud services. For example, if you call your tenancy "abccorp", an application URL might look like:

          https://abccorp-oracleservice.service.us.phoenix-1.ocs

        • The tenancy name must be unique, start with a lowercase letter and have no more than 25 lowercase letters or numbers. You can't use spaces or special characters.
      4. Select a Home region where your services will be hosted.
        Note: Your home region is the geographic location where your account and identity resources will be created. You can't change this after signing up. If you are not sure which region to select as your home region, contact your sales representative before you create your account.
      5. Read the terms of use and click Create Tenancy.

  3. Create the Data Environment.

    You'll receive a another email titled “Get Started Now with Oracle Cloud”. Click the Sign In button in the email. The Create environment page is displayed.
    1. Specify the cloud account name, credentials that you provided while creating cloud account and click Create.
    2. On the Create environment page, specify the admin email and click Create.
      Note: Ensure that you don’t select the Update option.

      A page containing the environment information is displayed.

    3. Click the environment name to view the environment details.
    4. Copy the Service console URL from the Environment information tab and other links you need from the Additional links tab.
  4. Create the OAuth client credentials as follows:

    Follow the instructions mention on this page to add Confidential Application. When you reach the step to click the OAuth configuration tab and click Edit OAuth configuration, perform the following steps:

    1. Select Configure the application as a client now.
    2. Select the following options in the Authorization section:
      • Resource owner
      • Client credentials
      • Refresh token
    3. Click Submit.
      Note: For any integration or using Oracle Account and Contact Enrichment by D&B APIs, you require the client credentials. Use these steps:
      1. Copy the Client ID in the General Information section.
      2. Copy the Show secret information in the Client secret section.
    4. Click Actions > Activate.

You are now ready to start working on the application.
