Set up an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure connector

ConductorOne provides identity governance for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Integrate your Oracle Cloud Infrastructure instance with ConductorOne to run user access reviews (UARs) and enable just-in-time access requests.

Gather Oracle Cloud Infrastructure credentials

Configuring the connector requires you to pass in credentials generated in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Gather these credentials before you move on.

A user with the ability to create API keys and the permission to read policies in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure must perform this task.

Look up your OCI tenant’s OCID

  1. In the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure console, navigate to Governance & Administration > Organization Management > Tenancies.

  2. Copy and save the tenancy OCID.

Look up your user OCID

  1. In the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure console, navigate to Identity > My profile.

  2. Copy and save the user OCID.

Look up your region

Make a note of your region, such as us-sanjose-1.

Generate and API key pair and fingerprint

  1. In the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure console, navigate to Identity > My profile > Tokens and keys > API keys.

  2. Click Add API key then select Generate API key pair.

  3. Download the public and private key files that are generated for you.

  4. Copy and save the fingerprint from the API key details screen.

That’s it! Next, move on to the connector configuration instructions.

Configure the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure connector

To complete this task, you’ll need:

  • The Connector Administrator or Super Administrator role in ConductorOne
  • Access to the set of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure credentials generated by following the instructions above

Follow these instructions to use a built-in, no-code connector hosted by ConductorOne.

  1. In ConductorOne, navigate to Admin > Connectors and click Add connector.

  2. Search for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and click Add.

  3. Choose how to set up the new Oracle Cloud Infrastructure connector:

    • Add the connector to a currently unmanaged app (select from the list of apps that were discovered in your identity, SSO, or federation provider that aren’t yet managed with ConductorOne)

    • Add the connector to a managed app (select from the list of existing managed apps)

    • Create a new managed app

  4. Set the owner for this connector. You can manage the connector yourself, or choose someone else from the list of ConductorOne users. Setting multiple owners is allowed.

    If you choose someone else, ConductorOne will notify the new connector owner by email that their help is needed to complete the setup process.

  5. Click Next.

  6. Find the Settings area of the page and click Edit.

  7. Enter the Tenancy OCID, User OCID, Region, and Fingerprint into the relevant fields.

  8. Click Choose file and upload the Private key.

  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.

That’s it! Your Oracle Cloud Infrastructure connector is now pulling access data into ConductorOne.

Follow these instructions to use the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure connector, hosted and run in your own environment.

When running in service mode on Kubernetes, a self-hosted connector maintains an ongoing connection with ConductorOne, automatically syncing and uploading data at regular intervals. This data is immediately available in the ConductorOne UI for access reviews and access requests.

Step 1: Set up a new Oracle Cloud Infrastructure connector

  1. In ConductorOne, navigate to Connectors > Add connector.

  2. Search for Baton and click Add.

  3. Choose how to set up the new Oracle Cloud Infrastructure connector:

    • Add the connector to a currently unmanaged app (select from the list of apps that were discovered in your identity, SSO, or federation provider that aren’t yet managed with ConductorOne)

    • Add the connector to a managed app (select from the list of existing managed apps)

    • Create a new managed app

  4. Set the owner for this connector. You can manage the connector yourself, or choose someone else from the list of ConductorOne users. Setting multiple owners is allowed.

    If you choose someone else, ConductorOne will notify the new connector owner by email that their help is needed to complete the setup process.

  5. Click Next.

  6. In the Settings area of the page, click Edit.

  7. Click Rotate to generate a new Client ID and Secret.

    Carefully copy and save these credentials. We’ll use them in Step 2.

Step 2: Create Kubernetes configuration files

Create two Kubernetes manifest files for your Oracle Cloud Infrastructure connector deployment:

Secrets configuration

# baton-oracle-cloud-infrastructure-secrets.yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: baton-oracle-cloud-infrastructure-secrets
type: Opaque
stringData:
  # ConductorOne credentials
  BATON_CLIENT_ID: <ConductorOne client ID>
  BATON_CLIENT_SECRET: <ConductorOne client secret>
  
  # Oracle Cloud Infrastructure credentials
  BATON_TENANCY_OCID: <Oracle Cloud Infrastructure tenant OCID>
  BATON_USER_OCID: <Oracle Cloud Infrastructure user OCID>
  BATON_REGION: <Oracle Cloud Infrastructure region (such as "us-sanjose-1")>
  BATON_FINGERPRINT: <Oracle Cloud Infrastructure public key fingerprint>
  BATON_PRIVATE_KEY: <Oracle Cloud Infrastructure private key, in PEM format>

See the connector’s README or run --help to see all available configuration flags and environment variables.

Deployment configuration

# baton-oracle-cloud-infrastructure.yaml
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: baton-oracle-cloud-infrastructure
  labels:
    app: baton-oracle-cloud-infrastructure
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: baton-oracle-cloud-infrastructure
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:
        app: baton-oracle-cloud-infrastructure
        baton: true
        baton-app: oracle-cloud-infrastructure
    spec:
      containers:
      - name: baton-oracle-cloud-infrastructure
        image: ghcr.io/conductorone/baton-oracle-cloud-infrastructure:latest
        imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
        envFrom:
        - secretRef:
            name: baton-oracle-cloud-infrastructure-secrets

Step 3: Deploy the connector

  1. Create a namespace in which to run ConductorOne connectors (if desired), then apply the secret config and deployment config files.

  2. Check that the connector data uploaded correctly. In ConductorOne, click Applications. On the Managed apps tab, locate and click the name of the application you added the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure connector to. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure data should be found on the Entitlements and Accounts tabs.

That’s it! Your Oracle Cloud Infrastructure connector is now pulling access data into ConductorOne.
