2.1 About Accessing Your Development Environment

How you sign in and access Oracle APEX depends upon your user role and where APEX resides.

Oracle APEX may reside in a local self-managed Oracle database or in a hosted environment (such as an Oracle Cloud service). The sign in process differs depending on where APEX resides.

Accessing Oracle APEX in a Local Self-managed Oracle Database

If you are running APEX in a local self-managed Oracle database, sign in to your APEX workspace as described in Signing In to Your Workspace in Oracle APEX Installation Guide

Accessing Oracle APEX in Oracle Cloud

In Oracle Cloud, APEX is installed and enabled in:

• Oracle APEX Application Development (APEX Service)

• Oracle Autonomous Transaction Processing

• Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse

APEX is available in Exadata Cloud Service and Database Cloud Service in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. However, you need to manually customize your databases to install and enable APEX by following on-premises installation process or using cloud tooling such as Terraform.
