Oracle Identity Cloud Service (IDCS) offers a comprehensive suite of identity and access management (IAM) capabilities that can significantly enhance the security and efficiency of the organization's operations like Authentication & Authorization, SSO, Centralized Identity Management, Integration capabilities with all non-oracle and oracle applications, scalability & Flexibility and many more.
In this post, I will guide you on how to log in to the adminclient using the TOKEN parameter with OCI GoldenGate 23ai. I assume you already have your OCI GoldenGate deployment set up with IAM authentication.
1. Locate the Application:
- Navigate to Identity > Domains > YOUR DOMAIN > Oracle Cloud Services.
- Search for the first part of your deployment Console URL to find the application.
2. Assign the User:
- In the application, assign the user to it.
3. Log in to OCI:
- Log in to OCI with the user that will be used in adminclient.
- Go to My Profile under the user icon in the top right corner.
4. Generate the Access Token:
- Since the user is added to the GoldenGate application, they can see the application in My Access Token > Invoke other APIs.
- Select the application name, specify the token lifetime, and download your token.
5. Copy the Token:
- Open the downloaded .tok file and copy the content (it should be a very long string).
6. Connect Using adminclient:
- In adminclient, use the following syntax:
connect https://deployment_url TOKEN !
- Paste your token.
