REST APIs (Inbound)

Use the REST APIs inbound integration option to import work order transactions into Oracle Fusion Cloud Manufacturing if your business process requires near real-time updates to your manufacturing data.

For example:

• If you have a coexistence manufacturing execution scenario where your Manufacturing Execution System (MES) is integrated with Oracle Manufacturing for manufacturing execution.
• You need near real-time updates of material and resource usage recorded in the MES in Oracle Manufacturing.

Key Features

• Performs data updates in real time.
• Used for both inbound and outbound integration.
• Used with Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC) to perform near real-time operations in Oracle Manufacturing.

Best Practices

• Use this option only if you need to perform near real-time mode operations in Oracle Manufacturing.
• Call the REST API in a smaller set of records if the data set is very high. A REST API can experience a 504-gateway timeout if a request runs for more than 5 minutes.

Constraints

• This option isn't suitable for importing a large volume of manufacturing data.
• It can't be used to trigger Electronic Records and Electronic Signatures (ERES) events related to manufacturing.
• There might be instances of inconsistent performance in near real-time implementations.
