Connect to an Application in Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications Suite

Create a connection to an application in Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications Suite to visualize data from that application. For example, you can connect to Oracle Fusion Cloud Financials with Oracle Transactional Business Intelligence. You can also connect to Oracle BI Enterprise Edition.

1. On your home page, click Create, then click Connection.
2. Click Oracle Applications.
3. Enter the connection details.
   • For Connection Name, specify a user-friendly name to identify the connection details in Oracle Analytics.
   • For Host, enter the URL for Fusion Applications Suite with Oracle Transactional Business Intelligence or Oracle Analytics Server.

     Note:

     Don't enter the URL of the Oracle Analytics application that you're currently logged in to. If you want to visualize the data used in a local analysis, create a dataset based on the analysis (local subject area). See Create a Dataset from a Subject Area in Your Instance.
   • For Username and Password, specify the credentials for the 'native' administrator user specified in Identity and Access Management (IAM)) in the Oracle Applications source system.
4. Under Authentication, select Always use these credentials.
   Using this option means that analytics users won't be prompted to log in.
   Alternatively, you can use the Use the active user’s credentials option if in Oracle Analytics you an administrator account setup with exactly the same username as the native administrator username (the password can be different).
5. Click Save.

   Analytics users can now create datasets from the connection.
