Create a Confidential Application for OAuth Client

In Oracle Identity Cloud Service you must create and set up a confidential application that uses OAuth.

For Oracle WebLogic Server to authenticate users with Oracle Identity Cloud Service, the Oracle Identity Cloud Integrator provider must be associated with an OAuth client that is registered with Oracle Identity Cloud Service. The OAuth client allows the provider access to Oracle Identity Cloud Service.
