Securing Outbound RESTful Service Invocations

Introduction

For calling RESTful services provided by other applications or systems the use of specific security features may be required. Sample use cases include:

  • Sending requests from one Oracle Health Insurance application to another, e.g. as is the case for Data Replication (to synchronize member data between Oracle Health Insurance Policies and Oracle Health Insurance Authorizations) or to pass Enrollment data between Oracle Health Insurance Claims and Oracle Health Insurance Policies.

  • REST client defined in Call Out Rules that are configured in Dynamic Logic code for accessing services in external applications.

REST clients in Oracle Health Insurance applications provide support for Basic Authentication as well as OAuth2.
