Configure the Connection URI for Oracle E-Business Suite

  • Article

A connection URI is a connection string that contains parameters required to connect to Oracle E-Business Suite. While using the Consume Adapter Service Add-in or Add Adapter Metadata Wizard in Visual Studio, you must specify the URI to connect to Oracle E-Business Suite to generate the metadata. While configuring an orchestration using the BizTalk Server Administration console, you must specify the URI to connect to Oracle E-Business Suite to perform operations.

Specifying the Connection URI from Visual Studio

From Visual Studio, you must specify the connection URI using the Consume Adapter Service Add-in or Add Adapter Metadata Wizard.

To specify the connection URI using Consume Adapter Service Add-in

  1. Right-click your BizTalk project, point to Add, and then click Add Generated Items.

  2. In the Add Generated Items dialog box, do the following:

    Use this To do this
    Categories Click Consume Adapter Service.
    Templates Click Consume Adapter Service.

  3. To start the Consume Adapter Service dialog box, click Add.

  4. In the Consume Adapter Service dialog box, from the Select a binding list, select oracleEBSBinding, and then click Configure.

  5. In the Configure Adapter dialog box, click the Security tab. From the Client credential type list, select Username and specify the user name and password to connect to the Oracle E-Business Suite.

    Use this To do this
    To connect using Oracle database credentials Specify the ClientCredentialType binding property to Database and specify database credentials for User name and Password text boxes.
    To connect using Oracle E-Business Suite credentials Specify the ClientCredentialType binding property to EBusiness and specify Oracle E-Business Suite credentials for User name and Password text boxes. In this case, you must also specify Oracle database credentials for OracleUserName and OraclePassword binding properties.
    To connect using Windows Authentication if ClientCredentialType is set to “Database” Specify a “/” for the User name text box and leave the Password text box blank.
    To connect using Windows Authentication if ClientCredentialType is set to “EBusiness” Specify Oracle E-Business Suite credentials for User name and Password text boxes. You must also specify a “/” for the OracleUserName binding property and leave the OraclePassword binding property blank.

  6. Click the URI Properties tab, and specify values for different parameters. For more information about the connection URI for the Oracle E-Business adapter, see Configure the Connection URI for Oracle E-Business Suite.

  7. Click the Binding Properties tab, and specify the binding values, if any, which are required before generating the schema. For more information about binding properties, see Read about the BizTalk Adapter for Oracle E-Business Suite Binding Properties.

  8. Click OK.

To specify the connection URI using Add Adapter Metadata Wizard

  1. Right-click your BizTalk project, point to Add, and then click Add Generated Items.

  2. In the Add Generated Items dialog box, do the following:

    Use this To do this
    Categories Click Add Adapter.
    Templates Click Add Adapter Metadata.

  4. In the Add Adapter Metadata Wizard, select WCF-OracleEBS. Select the computer on which BizTalk Server is installed and the name of the BizTalk database.

    Important

    If you already have a WCF-OracleEBS port configured in BizTalk, select the port from the Port list.

  5. Click Next.

  6. In the Consume Adapter Service dialog box, from the Select a binding list, select oracleEBSBinding, and then click Configure.

  7. In the Configure Adapter dialog box, click the Security tab. From the Client credential type list, select Username and specify the user name and password to connect to the Oracle E-Business Suite.

    Use this To do this
    To connect using Oracle database credentials Specify the ClientCredentialType binding property to Database and specify database credentials for User name and Password text boxes.
    To connect using Oracle E-Business Suite credentials Specify the ClientCredentialType binding property to EBusiness and specify Oracle E-Business Suite credentials for User name and Password text boxes. In this case, you must also specify Oracle database credentials for OracleUserName and OraclePassword binding properties.
    To connect using Windows Authentication if ClientCredentialType is set to “Database” Specify a “/” for the User name text box and leave the Password text box blank.
    To connect using Windows Authentication if ClientCredentialType is set to “EBusiness” Specify Oracle E-Business Suite credentials for User name and Password text boxes. You must also specify a “/” for the OracleUserName binding property and leave the OraclePassword binding property blank.

  8. Click the URI Properties tab, and specify values for different parameters. For more information about the connection URI for the Oracle E-Business adapter, see Configure the Connection URI for Oracle E-Business Suite.

    Note

    If you selected an existing WCF-OracleEBS send port, you need not specify the binding properties. The binding properties are picked from the send port configuration. However, you may choose to specify the binding properties that are required at design-time, if any. In such case, the new values for binding properties will be used at design-time while generating the metadata. However, at run-time the values specified for binding properties in the send port configuration will be applicable.

  10. Click OK.

Specifying the Connection URI from the BizTalk Server Administration Console

From the BizTalk Server Administration console, you must specify the connection URI as part of the WCF-Custom or WCF-OracleEBS port configuration.

    Note

    The binding properties are displayed based on whether you are configuring a send port or a receive port. For example, binding properties related to notifications are not available while configuring a send port because notifications are inbound operations and require a receive port configuration.

  8. If you are creating a send port, in the transport properties dialog box, click the Credentials tab, and do one of the following:
