Oracle Eloqua authentication

Prerequisites​

To create a connection with Oracle Eloqua, you need the following credentials:

  • OAuth 2.0 Authorization code: Company Name, Username, Password
  • Bring your own OAuth 2.0 App: Client ID and Client Secret.

For creating a private OAuth2 app, follow the steps mentioned in the Oracle Eloqua documentation, i.e. Oracle Eloqua Developer's Guide.

note

When registering your OAuth application in Oracle Eloqua, make sure to set the callback URL to the value displayed on the connection creation page, for example https://cloud.uipath.com/provisioning_/callback for Automation Cloud.

Add the Oracle Eloqua connection​

To create a connection to your Oracle Eloqua instance, you need to perform the following steps:

  1. Select Orchestrator from the product launcher.

  2. Select a folder, and then navigate to the Connections tab.

  3. Select Add connection.

  4. To open the connection creation page, select the connector from the list. You can use the search bar to find the connector.

    note

    A user cannot create more than one connection from UiPath within a span of 60 seconds. This is a limitation while creating an OAuth 2.0 connection to Oracle Eloqua.

  5. Select your preferred authentication method and enter the required credentials.

    For any secret-type field, you can select the menu next to the field and choose Use credential asset to reference an Orchestrator credential asset linked to an external vault instead of entering the value directly. For more information, see Use credential assets for connections.

  6. Click Connect.
