REST APIs

With the REST API option, you either can push data into Oracle Fusion Cloud Warehouse Management or retrieve data from Oracle Warehouse Management in real time using standard secure protocols and formats.

Key Features

  • Most commonly used.
  • Can support large payloads.
  • Data typically flows from external systems.

Best Practices

  • If back-end systems are part of Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications, use the available previously built Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC) integrations.
  • If back-end systems are external applications, then you'd still use OIC or any other middle tier for data making and transformation needs.
  • If using a warehouse control system for any automation requirements, it's best to use a REST API option.
  • Use REST APIs to communicate with Oracle Warehouse Management for custom applications.

Constraints

  • In case of persistent failures, customers might need to correct the data set and resend or contact Oracle Support.
  • A REST API can experience a 504 Gateway timeout if a request runs for more than 5 minutes. The OIC timeout is also 5 minutes.
