Integration Flows
The integration supports the following processes:
Enrollment Sync (DACS Initiated)
When customers enroll or unenroll, their smart controllable device(s) in a program successfully in Oracle Utilities Digital Asset Cloud Service, the enrollment information are sent to Oracle Utilities Analytics Insights through a file extract.
This integration process transfers the enrollment file from Oracle Utilities Digital Asset Cloud Service to Oracle Utilities Analytics Insights.
Oracle Utilities Analytics Insights process the enrollments and send the enrollment acknowledgment back to Oracle Utilities Digital Asset Cloud Service.
Oracle Utilities Digital Asset Cloud Service can place the file in an On Premise FTP Server or in an OCI Object Storage location. Oracle Utilities Analytics Insights only interacts with files through OCI Object Storage.
The enrollment synchronization and acknowledgment are handled by the following Oracle Integration Cloud integration flows depending on the file transfer preference:
The following diagram shows the Enrollment related Processes: 
Enrollment FTP Transfer (DACS Initiated)
This integration process retrieves the enrollment sync data file(s) from an FTP content storage location where Oracle Utilities Digital Asset Cloud Service uploads files and transfer it to the related Oracle Utilities Analytics Insights Object Storage location.

Event Outcome (DERMS Initiated)
Customers enrolled in an active program are called upon to participate in program events for a specific duration.
After events have completed, Oracle Utilities Grid Edge Distributed Energy Resources Management System receives the actual outcome of all devices’ event participation from Oracle Utilities Live Energy Connect (LEC).
Oracle Utilities Grid Edge Distributed Energy Resources Management System aggregates and sends both Oracle Utilities Digital Asset Cloud Service and Oracle Utilities Analytics Insights the post event outcome for all controllable devices called to participate in an event or events through a file.
The data in the file can be from one or multiple events. Each device that is called to participate in an event will have one record in the file. Example, if a service point has 2 devices linked to in and both participated in an event, then each device will have one outcome record in the file.
Once the file is ready, Oracle Utilities Grid Edge Distributed Energy Resources Management System sends the JSON outbound message with the file attachment.
This integration process transfers the post event outcome file from Oracle Utilities Grid Edge Distributed Energy Resources Management System to Oracle Utilities Analytics Insights and sends an acknowledgment back to Oracle Utilities Grid Edge Distributed Energy Resources Management System when the process is completed or encountered an error.
The following diagram shows a graphical representation of the Event Outcome integration process. 
Processing Details

1. The process is triggered when Oracle Utilities Grid Edge Distributed Energy Resources Management System invokes REST endpoint to send the post event outcome information to Oracle Utilities Analytics Insights Service. The message received is a JSON payload with a CSV file attachment.
2. If Oracle Utilities Analytics Insights is configured to receive the attached file via object storage the request is routed to OU OUAI Common OS Transfer child process passing the necessary information to drop it accordingly.
The OU OUAI Common OS Transfer Oracle Integration Cloud child process uploads the file to the Oracle Utilities Analytics Insights Object Storage.
Note: The property ouai.file.target.transfer is defaulted to “os”. Currently, Oracle Utilities Analytics Insights only support Object Storage as its content server.
a. If the child REST service returns HTTP status 200, the file transfer was successfully completed, and a positive post event outcome acknowledgment is sent to Oracle Utilities Grid Edge Distributed Energy Resources Management System.
b. Else, an error occurred during the file transfer and a negative post event outcome acknowledgment is sent to Oracle Utilities Grid Edge Distributed Energy Resources Management System.
3. Error Handling
For any errors encountered in this process:
• An error email notification with error details is sent via the common error handler Oracle Integration Cloud process.
• A negative acknowledgment is sent to Oracle Utilities Grid Edge Distributed Energy Resources Management System upon it will retry the file transfer according the MAX_RETRIES setting in their DRMS_PARAMENTERS table.

Common Integration Flows
This section focuses on the common logic that is used throughout the integration. The common logic is placed in common integration flows to be reused or called by the other integrations flows. It can be categorized in design standards, email format, and common integration.
File to File Transfer
Many integrations are moving files from one application to another. Source and target locations can be a folder in an on-premises server or a cloud object storage. This is dependent on what the source and target applications support during the implementation.
Note: Currently, Oracle Utilities Analytics Insights only uses the Oracle Integration Cloud Object Storage as its content server. Oracle Utilities Grid Edge Distributed Energy Resources Management System uses REST APIs to send and receive files. Oracle Utilities Digital Asset Cloud Service supports both FTP and Object Storage as its content server.
If the source application supports FTP or object storage as it’s content server, then there will be two Oracle Integration Cloud flows to support each entry point. It is duplicated because an integration cannot be activated if one of the connections is not setup.
To allow customers to decide how to transfer files to a target location, a file target transfer preference property must be set to determine where to transfer the file. Valid values are “os” or “ftp”.
• If set to “os”, a child Oracle Integration Cloud flow is called to transfer the file to a target object storage location.
Note: Each application’s target object storage location has it's own child Oracle Integration Cloud flow.
• If set to “ftp”, a child Oracle Integration Cloud flow is called to transfer the file to a target ftp location. 
Note: Each application’s target FTP location has it's own child Oracle Integration Cloud flow.
Common Child File Transfer Flows (Oracle Integration Cloud Initiated)
• OU OUAI Common OS Transfer
• OU DACS Common FTP Transfer
• OU DACS Common OS Transfer
All child Oracle Integration Cloud flows are exposed as a REST API and are setup similarly to receive the endpoint information to send to an FTP or Object Storage location.
