Tutorial: Configure Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console for automatic user provisioning

  • Статия

Note

Integrating with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console or Oracle IDCS with a custom / BYOA application is not supported. Using the gallery application as described in this tutorial is supported. The gallery application has been customized to work with the Oracle SCIM server.

This tutorial describes the steps you need to perform in both Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console and Microsoft Entra ID to configure automatic user provisioning. When configured, Microsoft Entra ID automatically provisions and deprovisions users and groups to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console using the Microsoft Entra provisioning service. For important details on what this service does, how it works, and frequently asked questions, see Automate user provisioning and deprovisioning to SaaS applications with Microsoft Entra ID.

Capabilities supported

  • Create users in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console
  • Remove users in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console when they do not require access anymore
  • Keep user attributes synchronized between Microsoft Entra ID and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console
  • Provision groups and group memberships in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console
  • Single sign-on to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console (recommended)

Prerequisites

The scenario outlined in this tutorial assumes that you already have the following prerequisites:

Note

This integration is also available to use from Microsoft Entra US Government Cloud environment. You can find this application in the Microsoft Entra US Government Cloud Application Gallery and configure it in the same way as you do from public cloud

Step 1: Plan your provisioning deployment

  1. Learn about how the provisioning service works.
  2. Determine who will be in scope for provisioning.
  3. Determine what data to map between Microsoft Entra ID and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console.

Step 2: Configure Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console to support provisioning with Microsoft Entra ID

  1. Log on to the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console admin portal. On the top left corner of the screen navigate to Identity > Federation.

    Screenshot shows the Oracle Admin.

  2. Click on the URL displayed on the page beside Oracle Identity Cloud Service Console.

    Screenshot shows the Oracle URL.

  3. Click on Add Identity Provider to create a new identity provider. Save the IdP ID to be used as a part of tenant URL. Select the plus icon beside the Applications tab to create an OAuth Client and Grant IDCS Identity Domain Administrator AppRole.

    Screenshot shows the Oracle Cloud Icon.

  4. Follow the screenshots below to configure your application. When the configuration is done, select Save.

    Screenshot shows the Oracle Configuration.

    Screenshot shows the Oracle Token Issuance Policy.

  5. Under the configurations tab of your application expand the General Information option to retrieve the client ID and client secret.

    Screenshot shows the Oracle token generation.

  6. To generate a secret token, encode the client ID and client secret as Base64 in the format client ID:Client Secret. Note - this value must be generated with line wrapping disabled (base64 -w 0). Save the secret token. This value will be entered in the Secret Token field in the provisioning tab of your Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console application.

Add Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console from the Microsoft Entra application gallery to start managing provisioning to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console. If you have previously setup Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console for SSO you can use the same application. However it is recommended that you create a separate app when testing out the integration initially. Learn more about adding an application from the gallery here.

Step 4: Define who will be in scope for provisioning

The Microsoft Entra provisioning service allows you to scope who will be provisioned based on assignment to the application and or based on attributes of the user / group. If you choose to scope who will be provisioned to your app based on assignment, you can use the following steps to assign users and groups to the application. If you choose to scope who will be provisioned based solely on attributes of the user or group, you can use a scoping filter as described here.

Step 5: Configure automatic user provisioning to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console

This section guides you through the steps to configure the Microsoft Entra provisioning service to create, update, and disable users and/or groups in TestApp based on user and/or group assignments in Microsoft Entra ID.

To configure automatic user provisioning for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console in Microsoft Entra ID:

  1. Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center as at least a Cloud Application Administrator.

  2. Browse to Identity > Applications > Enterprise applications

    Screenshot shows the enterprise applications blade.

  3. In the applications list, select Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console.

    Screenshot shows the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console link in the Applications list.

  4. Select the Provisioning tab.

    Screenshot of the Manage options with the Provisioning option called out.

  5. Set the Provisioning Mode to Automatic.

    Screenshot of the Provisioning Mode dropdown list with the Automatic option called out.

  6. Under the Admin Credentials section, input the Tenant URL in the format https://<IdP ID>.identity.oraclecloud.com/admin/v1. For example https://idcs-0bfd023ff2xx4a98a760fa2c31k92b1d.identity.oraclecloud.com/admin/v1. Input the secret token value retrieved earlier in Secret Token. Click Test Connection to ensure Microsoft Entra ID can connect to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console. If the connection fails, ensure your Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console account has admin permissions and try again.

    Screenshot shows the Admin Credentials dialog box, where you can enter your Tenant U R L and Secret Token.

  7. In the Notification Email field, enter the email address of a person or group who should receive the provisioning error notifications and select the Send an email notification when a failure occurs check box.

    Screenshot shows the Notification Email.

  8. Select Save.

  9. Under the Mappings section, select Synchronize Microsoft Entra users to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console.

  10. Review the user attributes that are synchronized from Microsoft Entra ID to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console in the Attribute-Mapping section. The attributes selected as Matching properties are used to match the user accounts in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console for update operations. If you choose to change the matching target attribute, you will need to ensure that the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console API supports filtering users based on that attribute. Select the Save button to commit any changes.

    Attribute Type
    displayName String
    userName String
    active Boolean
    title String
    emails[type eq "work"].value String
    preferredLanguage String
    name.givenName String
    name.familyName String
    addresses[type eq "work"].formatted String
    addresses[type eq "work"].locality String
    addresses[type eq "work"].region String
    addresses[type eq "work"].postalCode String
    addresses[type eq "work"].country String
    addresses[type eq "work"].streetAddress String
    urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:extension:enterprise:2.0:User:employeeNumber String
    urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:extension:enterprise:2.0:User:department String
    urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:extension:enterprise:2.0:User:costCenter String
    urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:extension:enterprise:2.0:User:division String
    urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:extension:enterprise:2.0:User:manager Reference
    urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:extension:enterprise:2.0:User:organization String
    urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:oracle:idcs:extension:user:User:bypassNotification Boolean
    urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:oracle:idcs:extension:user:User:isFederatedUser Boolean

    Note

    Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console's SCIM endpoint expects addresses[type eq "work"].country MUST be in ISO 3166-1 "alpha-2" code format (for example US,UK, and so on). Before starting provisioning please check to make sure that all users have their respective "Country or region" field value set in the expected format or else that particular user provisioning will fail. Screenshot shows the contact information.

    Note

    The extension attributes "urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:oracle:idcs:extension:user:User:bypassNotification" and "urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:oracle:idcs:extension:user:User:isFederatedUser" are the only custom extension attributes supported in that format. Additional extension attributes should follow the format of urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:extension:CustomExtensionName:2.0:User:CustomAttribute.

  11. Under the Mappings section, select Synchronize Microsoft Entra groups to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console.

  12. Review the group attributes that are synchronized from Microsoft Entra ID to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console in the Attribute-Mapping section. The attributes selected as Matching properties are used to match the groups in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console for update operations. Select the Save button to commit any changes.

    Attribute Type
    displayName String
    externalId String
    members Reference

  13. To configure scoping filters, refer to the following instructions provided in the Scoping filter tutorial.

  14. To enable the Microsoft Entra provisioning service for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console, change the Provisioning Status to On in the Settings section.

    Screenshot shows the Provisioning Status Toggled On.

  15. Define the users and/or groups that you would like to provision to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console by choosing the desired values in Scope in the Settings section.

    Screenshot shows the Provisioning Scope.

  16. When you are ready to provision, click Save.

    Screenshot shows the Saving Provisioning Configuration.

This operation starts the initial synchronization cycle of all users and groups defined in Scope in the Settings section. The initial cycle takes longer to perform than subsequent cycles, which occur approximately every 40 minutes as long as the Microsoft Entra provisioning service is running.

Step 6: Monitor your deployment

Once you've configured provisioning, use the following resources to monitor your deployment:

  • Use the provisioning logs to determine which users have been provisioned successfully or unsuccessfully
  • Check the progress bar to see the status of the provisioning cycle and how close it is to completion
  • If the provisioning configuration seems to be in an unhealthy state, the application will go into quarantine. Learn more about quarantine states here.

Change log
