| Self-Service Module Level Access Control Management |
This enhancement introduces self-service management for Module Level Access Control in the OHIP Developer Portal. Customer administrators can enable or disable Module Level Access Control for an environment from the Global Administration area of the Developer Portal. When enabled, customers can choose which OPERA modules and functional areas each customer-created client ID can access. For each customer-created client ID, customers can also grant Sensitive Data Access where required. This allows approved client applications to receive certain sensitive data elements, such as identity document IDs and dates of birth, in API responses. This permission does not allow access to highly restricted information such as credit card numbers. When a partner requests access to an environment where Module Level Access Control is enabled, the partner must select the appropriate OPERA modules and Sensitive Data Access, if required, before submitting the request. The customer can then review the requested access and approve it accordingly. This feature helps organizations apply more precise access controls so that client applications are granted access only to the OPERA modules, functional areas, and sensitive data access required for their integration |
Module Level Access Control gives customer administrators greater control over client application permissions directly from the Developer Portal. Benefits include:
|
| Data APIs Documentation Now Available in the Developer Portal | The Developer Portal APIs dashboard has a new Content option for Data APIs and a new API Category for the Reporting and Analytics Data APIs for viewing available Data APIs. | Customers and partners can efficiently understand, consume, and integrate with the specified APIs. |
| Include enterpriseId on the Analytics Screen in the Developer Portal | The Developer Portal Analytics dashboard has a new query filter for the Enterprise ID. | The additional filter lets users select a specific enterprise when querying results or to search across multiple enterprises to which the application has access. This is valuable for partners managing connections with multiple customer enterprises. While customers typically operate within a single enterprise, this feature can also help identify unexpected or unfamiliar enterprise entries that may result from partner-related errors. |
| Pagination for Developer Portal Applications and Events Subscribed pages | The Developer Portal Applications & Environment pages and some sub-pages now provide a seamless experience by automatically loading additional content when scrolling down the page, eliminating the need to manually refresh or wait for all items to load. |
|
| Show permissions from lowest OPERA version for Affiliated customers where one chain exists in multiple environments |
When an affiliated customer requests access to OPERA Cloud foundation environments that share the same chain code across multiple environments within the same Enterprise, the permission selection experience is now aligned across all associated environments. If module-level access control is enabled in any of the environments, the system presents a unified list of permissions that are supported in every environment using that chain code. The list is based on the lowest OPERA version among the associated environments, ensuring all selected permissions can be approved and function consistently after access is granted. This enhancement prevents affiliated customers from requesting permissions that are unavailable in some environments, streamlines the approval process, and ensures reliable access across environments. If none of the environments have module-level access control enabled, the existing access request workflow continues unchanged. |
|
| Approving and Rejecting Streams Usability Improvement |
The approval workflow for streaming subscription requests has been enhanced to improve usability when managing large hotel chains. When approving, rejecting, or retrying subscription requests that include a large number of hotels, action buttons are now accessible without requiring users to scroll to the bottom of the list. |
|
| Revoke an App's Access to Consume Business Events from a Given OPERA Environment |
Customers who approve partner applications to consume OPERA Cloud business events enable those applications to receive event notifications generated from their OPERA environments. When such access is approved, an external system interface is automatically created in the selected OPERA environment to support the integration. With this enhancement, customers can now revoke a partner application's access to consume business events directly from the OHIP Customer Portal. This lets customers discontinue integrations when required, such as when a contract with a partner ends or when access to operational data must be restricted. |
|
| Ask Oracle Now Available in the OHIP Developer Portal |
The OHIP Developer Portal introduces an AI-powered assistant, Ask Oracle, which enables users to ask questions in natural language while working with OHIP integrations. Ask Oracle provides contextual responses based on OHIP knowledge sources, including documentation, implementation guides, and integration best practices. The assistant helps users quickly find relevant information and guidance without navigating multiple documentation sources. This capability is managed through the Global Administration feature controls framework, allowing administrators to enable or disable AI-powered functionality for their organization as needed. |
|
| Copy and Share Customer Environment Details with Partners |
Customers onboarding partner integrations often need to share their enterprise details, such as Enterprise ID, Chain Code, Region, and Environment Type. Previously, these details had to be gathered manually from multiple fields within the portal, which could be time-consuming and prone to errors. With this enhancement, enterprise details are now presented in a single consolidated view within the portal. Customers can copy all required enterprise details with a single click, allowing them to quickly share accurate and structured information with partners during onboarding or integration setup. The copied information is formatted in a clear and structured format, making it easier to paste into emails, documentation, or communication channels used when coordinating with vendor partners. This improvement simplifies the onboarding experience and reduces the effort required to provide enterprise configuration details to integration partners. |
|
| Extend Customer Admin Opt-Out for AI Features in OHIP |
The Global Administration area of the OHIP Developer Portal now provides administrators with a centralized control to enable or disable selected platform features across their organization. This capability allows administrators with the OHIPADMIN role to manage optional features directly from the Developer Portal without requiring Oracle operational support. These controls can be used to manage the availability of optional capabilities, including features such as AI-powered functionality, across the organization. By providing a centralized opt-in and opt-out mechanism, administrators can control when specific capabilities are enabled within their environments. |
|
Streaming
| Feature | Description | Operational Benefits |
|---|---|---|
| Automatically enable Streaming API for newly provisioned customers |
This enhancement simplifies access to the OHIP Streaming API by automatically enabling streaming capabilities for newly provisioned customer environments. Previously, access to the Streaming API required customers or partners to submit a request and complete training before the feature could be enabled. This requirement was introduced to reduce the risk of poor integrations when the streaming capability was first introduced. With improved documentation, including the Streaming Implementation Guide, and broader support for streaming protocols in modern development frameworks, the risk of incorrect implementations has decreased. This change aligns OHIP with current market expectations by making streaming functionality readily available while maintaining guidance through existing implementation documentation. |
