Deprecated Features

Identity Governance Framework introduces some behavioral changes in the 12c (12.2.1.3.0) release. This includes deprecated and desupported features and components.

By deprecate, we mean that the feature is no longer being enhanced but is still supported for the full life of the 12c (12.2.1.3.0) release. By desupported, we mean that Oracle will no longer fix bugs related to that feature and may remove the code altogether. Where indicated, a deprecated feature may be desupported in a future major release.

From 12c (12.2.1.3.0) release onward, the User and Role API and the ArisID API features have been officially deprecated. The following documents have been deprecated from this release of Identity Governance Framework:

• Java API Reference for Identity Governance Framework IDXUserRole

• Java API Reference for Identity Governance Framework UserRole

• Using the ArisID API

Oracle recommends that you use instead Identity Directory API from Identity Governance Framework and migrate usage to this framework. For information about this migration, see Using the Identity Directory API and Migrating to Identity Directory API.
