Oracle Financials UCM Credential

Oracle Universal Content Management (UCM) is Oracle's enterprise content management platform that provides document management, content storage, and workflow capabilities tightly integrated with Oracle Financials and other Oracle ERP applications. Oracle UCM enables organizations to manage structured and unstructured content — including invoices, purchase orders, reports, and supporting documents — within their Oracle Financials environment. The Oracle Financials UCM Credential connector allows Nexla to authenticate to an Oracle UCM Content Server instance, enabling automated ingestion of content and documents stored in UCM and the delivery of data payloads to UCM-integrated Oracle Financials workflows.

Prerequisites

Before creating an Oracle Financials UCM Credential in Nexla, you need the host URL of your Oracle UCM Content Server and a set of user credentials with the appropriate permissions to access the content you want to work with.

Required Access

Your Oracle UCM user account must have the appropriate security group memberships and role assignments to access the content areas you intend to use with Nexla. Oracle UCM uses the Oracle WebLogic Server user store to manage user credentials, and access control is enforced through security groups and roles configured in Content Server.

Contact your Oracle Financials or UCM administrator to confirm that your account has the necessary permissions for the content items, security groups, and workflows your integration will access.

Obtain Your Oracle UCM Host URL

The Host URL is the base URL of your Oracle UCM Content Server instance. It typically takes the following form:

https://<your-ucm-host>:<port>/cs

Where <your-ucm-host> is the hostname or IP address of your Oracle UCM server and <port> is the configured port (commonly 16200 for Oracle Fusion environments, or another port as configured by your administrator).

To confirm the correct Host URL for your environment, contact your Oracle UCM or Oracle Financials system administrator. The URL can also be found in the Oracle Enterprise Manager (EM) console under the UCM server configuration, or in the Oracle WebLogic Server Administration Console under the deployed UCM application settings.

In Oracle Fusion Cloud environments, the UCM Content Server URL is typically provided by your Oracle Financials system administrator and may follow the pattern https://<fusion-host>/cs or a tenant-specific endpoint. Verify the correct URL with your administrator before proceeding.

Obtain Your Credentials

Oracle UCM uses the Oracle WebLogic Server user store to manage user authentication. Your username and password are the same credentials used to log in to the Oracle UCM Content Server interface or the Oracle WebLogic Server Administration Console for your environment.

Important

Nexla recommends using a dedicated service account for API integrations rather than a personal user account. A dedicated service account ensures that credential access is not affected by individual user changes such as password resets or account deactivations. Contact your Oracle UCM administrator to create and configure a service account with the appropriate permissions.

For complete information about Oracle UCM user management and security configuration, see the Oracle WebCenter Content Administrator's Guide.

Create a credential in Nexla

1. After selecting the data source/destination type, click the Add Credential tile to open the Add New Credential overlay.

2. Enter a name for the credential in the Credential Name field and a short, meaningful description in the Credential Description field.

3. Enter the base URL of your Oracle UCM Content Server instance in the Host URL field. This is the root URL used to connect to your Oracle UCM Content Server (for example, https://ucm.example.com/cs). Nexla uses this URL to construct the appropriate API request paths for your UCM instance.

4. Enter the username of the Oracle UCM account that Nexla will use to authenticate in the Username field. This is the same username used to log in to Oracle UCM or the Oracle WebLogic Server Administration Console for your environment.

5. Enter the password for the specified Oracle UCM account in the Password field.

   Your Oracle UCM credentials are encrypted and stored securely by Nexla. If the service account password is changed, you will need to update this credential in Nexla to reflect the new password.

6. Click the Save button at the bottom of the overlay. The newly added credential will now appear in a tile on the Authenticate screen during data source/destination creation and can be selected for use with a new data source or destination.
