Configure connections

The integrations that were imported in the previous section automatically created REST API connections to Oracle IoT Cloud Service, Oracle Engagement Cloud, and Oracle Service Cloud. However, those connections must be configured with demo environments prior to using this accelerator. The following steps will guide you through the configuration process for all connections.

Procedure

  1. Click on the hamburger menu at the top of the page to expand the OIC navigation tools and select Connections. The three connections that were imported as part of the integration display in the connections list.
    Note: Click the hamburger menu button again to hide the side panel, which will provide more viewing room for the connections.
  2. To configure the IoT Cloud Service REST connection, click the hamburger menu on the same row as AR IoT Cloud Service REST to expand the options menu and select Edit.
  3. Click the Configure Connectivity button and a modal window will display. Update the Connection URL field with the proper URL for the OIC instance that you recorded when configuring OIC in the previous instructions and click OK.
  4. Scroll down on the Connections page and click the Configure Security button. A modal window will open. Update the Username and Password fields with the service user account that has permissions to make API calls to the IoT Cloud Service.
  5. At the top of the Connections page, click the Test button to verify that the settings you entered are functional. If a success message displays, click Close to exit the connection. If an error appears, it most likely due to an incorrect URL or username/password.
  6. Repeat the above steps for both the AR Engagement Cloud REST and AR Service Cloud REST connections, using the applicable URLs and credentials that you recorded for those services in the previous sections.

What to do next

The next task is to configure integrations to all Oracle Cloud services.
