This blog was a collaborative effort between Greg Mally and Mike Muller of the A-Team. There is an effort under way to provide example assets for this blog and when those assets are available, this blog will be updated with details on how to get to them. One of the big challenges that Oracle Integration Cloud developers face is any outbound REST calls from Integration Cloud (IC) to Fusion Applications (FA) APIs require a user’s identity. On the surface this seems pretty...

Introduction Customers often ask us how they can automate the process of creating a secure Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) tenancy. In response to this, we created a Center for Internet Security (CIS) Landing Zone Quick Start template. This template enables OCI customers to quickly implement the CIS OCI Foundations Benchmark and overall OCI best practices within their tenancy. CIS recently released version 1.1 of the OCI Foundations Benchmark and the template provides a...

Introduction Any customer using Oracle IDCS with Azure AD as the IDP would want to automate the user and group provisioning process. When Azure AD acts as the IDP, the users are born in Azure AD or are brought into Azure AD from an on-premise repository like AD. Users of the Oracle SaaS or PaaS applications protected with IDCS can be authenticated by Azure AD by setting up the federation trust and user synchronization is a pre-requisite for SSO to work. For user...

In the last few months, I ran into several Oracle SaaS and PaaS customers that use both Okta and Identity Cloud Service for various use cases. While working with those customers, I figured that we did not have automated users/groups provisioning supported by Okta. As I worked on the integration myself, I figured that there is some incompatibility between Okta and IDCS's SCIM implementation for Group membership management. I came up with a solution to put proxy between Okta...
