Gather Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM credentials

Configuring the connector requires you to pass in credentials generated in Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM. Gather these credentials before you move on. To set up the Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM connector, you’ll need:
  • Base URL: The complete base URL for your Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM instance REST API, which is formed like https://your-instance.oraclecloud.com.
  • Username and password: The username and password for an Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM account with access to the Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM REST API.

Permissions for sync (read-only)

The service account must have access to the userAccounts resource. Read access is available via any of the following roles:
  • Use REST Service - User Accounts (ORA_PER_REST_SERVICE_ACCESS_USER_ACCOUNTS)
  • Use REST Service - User Accounts as Worker (ORA_PER_REST_SERVICE_ACCESS_USER_ACCOUNTS_AS_WORKER)
  • Use REST Service - User Accounts as Manager or HR (ORA_PER_REST_SERVICE_ACCESS_USER_ACCOUNTS_AS_MGR_OR_HR)
  • Human Capital Management Integration Specialist (ORA_HRC_HUMAN_CAPITAL_MANAGEMENT_INTEGRATION_SPECIALIST_JOB) — includes the read-only aggregate privilege ORA_PER_REST_SERVICE_ACCESS_USER_ACCOUNTS_RO (Get, Describe only)
Additionally, the account must have permissions to read all users’ data. A Data Role with a security profile scoped to View All People for Person and Public Person must be assigned, either directly to the user or via the user’s role. If the account used to connect does not have this capability, the connector will sync an empty or incomplete list of accounts.

Permissions for provisioning

Provisioning features (role assignment, account creation, and account actions) require additional privileges beyond sync. Oracle’s recommended approach is to create a custom job role that combines the necessary privileges:

Required roles

Oracle’s authorization tutorial for the User Accounts REST API recommends:
  1. Copy the Human Capital Management Integration Specialist (ORA_HRC_HUMAN_CAPITAL_MANAGEMENT_INTEGRATION_SPECIALIST_JOB) job role
  2. Add the following roles to its role hierarchy:
    • ORA_PER_REST_SERVICE_ACCESS_USER_ACCOUNTS (full read/write access to userAccounts)
    • ORA_FND_IT_SECURITY_MANAGER_JOB (SCIM access and role LOV lookups)
  3. Create a Data Role wrapping the custom job role with appropriate HCM security profiles (View All People, View All Organizations)
  4. Assign the Data Role to the integration service account
The Human Capital Management Integration Specialist role on its own only includes the read-only aggregate privilege (ORA_PER_REST_SERVICE_ACCESS_USER_ACCOUNTS_RO), which covers Get and Describe only. It is not sufficient for provisioning operations (Post, Patch, Delete). You must add the full ORA_PER_REST_SERVICE_ACCESS_USER_ACCOUNTS role to enable account creation.
That’s it! Next, move on to the connector configuration instructions.

Configure the Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM connector

To complete this task, you’ll need:
  • The Connector Administrator or Super Administrator role in C1
  • Access to the set of Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM credentials generated by following the instructions above
Follow these instructions to use a built-in, no-code connector hosted by C1.
1
In C1, navigate to Apps > Connectors and click Add connector.
2
Search for Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM and click Add.
3
Choose where to add the connector: Create a new app, or Add to an existing app (then select the app).If you’re creating a new app, choose whether to link it to an application discovered from your identity provider: select Yes and pick the IdP application, or No to continue with just the connector.
4
Set the connector’s Name and, optionally, a Description.
5
Click the pencil icon next to Owners to choose who can configure and manage this connector.
6
Click Add. The connector is created and its configuration page opens.
7
Find the Settings area of the page and click Edit.
8
Enter the credentials you gathered in the previous section.
9
Click Save.
10
The connector’s label changes to Syncing, followed by Connected. You can view the logs to ensure that information is syncing.
Done. Your Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM connector is now pulling access data into C1.
