Set up an Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM connector

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

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. This account must have sufficient permissions to read user accounts, roles, and role assignment data from the API.

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 ConductorOne
  • 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 ConductorOne.

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

  2. Search for Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM and click Add.

  3. Choose how to set up the new Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM 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 credentials you gathered in the previous section.

  8. Click Save.

  9. 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 Fusion Cloud HCM connector is now pulling access data into ConductorOne.

Follow these instructions to use the Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM 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 Fusion Cloud HCM 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 Fusion Cloud HCM 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 Fusion Cloud HCM connector deployment:

Secrets configuration

# baton-oracle-fusion-cloud-hcm-secrets.yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: baton-oracle-fusion-cloud-hcm-secrets
type: Opaque
stringData:
  # ConductorOne credentials
  BATON_CLIENT_ID: <ConductorOne client ID>
  BATON_CLIENT_SECRET: <ConductorOne client secret>
  
  # Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM credentials
  BATON_BASE_URL: <Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM REST API base URL>
  BATON_PASSWORD: <Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM account username>
  BATON_USERNAME: <Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM account password>

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

Deployment configuration

# baton-oracle-fusion-cloud-hcm.yaml
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: baton-oracle-fusion-cloud-hcm
  labels:
    app: baton-oracle-fusion-cloud-hcm
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: baton-oracle-fusion-cloud-hcm
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:
        app: baton-oracle-fusion-cloud-hcm
        baton: true
        baton-app: oracle-fusion-cloud-hcm
    spec:
      containers:
      - name: baton-oracle-fusion-cloud-hcm
        image: ghcr.io/conductorone/baton-oracle-fusion-cloud-hcm:latest
        imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
        envFrom:
        - secretRef:
            name: baton-oracle-fusion-cloud-hcm-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 Fusion Cloud HCM connector to. Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM data should be found on the Entitlements and Accounts tabs.

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