http://docs.oracle.com/en/middleware/goldengate/core/19.1/index.html |
Ensure that Oracle GoldenGate for Microservices Architecture 19c is installed. |

Ensure that you have a running Oracle GoldenGate Deployment. |
Step 1: Obtain Account Information
-
User name and password for Oracle GoldenGate account.
-
The URL of your Oracle GoldenGate instance.
Step 2: Install cURL
The examples within this document use the cURL command-line tool to demonstrate how to access the Oracle GoldenGate REST API.
To connect securely to the server, you must install a version of cURL that supports SSL and provide an SSL certificate authority (CA) certificate file or bundle to authenticate against the Verisign CA certificate. For more information about:
-
Using cURL, see Use cURLs.
-
Authentication, see Authentication.
-
In your browser, navigate to the cURL home page at http://curl.haxx.se and click Download in the left navigation menu.
-
On the cURL Releases and Downloads page, locate the SSL-enabled version of the cURL software that corresponds to your operating system, click the link to download the ZIP file, and install the software.
-
Navigate to the cURL CA Certs page at http://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html and download the cacert.pem SSL CA certificate bundle in the folder where you installed cURL.
-
Open a command window, navigate to the directory where you installed cURL, and set the cURL environment variable,
CURL_CA_BUNDLE
, to the location of an SSL certificate authority (CA) certificate bundle. For example:C:\curl> set CURL_CA_BUNDLE=cacert.pem
You are now ready to send requests to the Oracle GoldenGate using cURL.
