CONNECT

You can use this command to connect to a Service Manager as well as the Administration Service URI. You must connect to your Service Manager before you can execute most of the Admin Client commands.

Admin Client allows connections when the server uses a self-signed certificate though this is not the default. Admin Client does not allow connecting to a server through HTTPS when the self-signed certificate is invalid. To override this behavior, use the ! modifier with the CONNECT command.

For example, when using the Admin Client to connect to the Oracle GoldenGate Microservices Architecture services that are secured with a self-signed SSL certificate, you must use a command with the ! modifier:

CONNECT https://myserver.example.org as oggadmin !

When using Admin Client to connect to an IDP-enabled deployment, use the CONNECT command with the access-token parameter.
