Create Oracle AccessGate app

  1. Sign in to the Access Gateway Admin UI console.
  2. Click the Applications tab.
  3. Click +Add.
  4. Select the Oracle Access Gate option from the application menu. Click Create.

    Field Value
    Label A name for the app.
    Public Domain A fully qualified hostname in the format yourexternalname.yourdomain.com
    Protected Web Resource The URL of the internal, protected app. For example, accessgate.yourdomain.com:port/path, where
    • port: The port Oracle AccessGate listens on for HTTP requests.
    • path: The path to the application.

    See Configure load balancing.

    Group The group that contains the users who should be able to access the app.

    Post Login URL

    The Post Login URL. This field is enabled by default and contains the value:

    yourexternalname.yourdomain.com/OA_HTML/AppsLogin.

    Description Optional. A description for your app.
  6. Click Next.
  7. The Application pane provides a list settings particular to Oracle Access Gate. Confirm the following fields, modifying values as required, and click Validate.
    Field Value
    OID Datasource Enabled. See Administer Data Stores.
    OID Host The fully qualified hostname of the OID Host.

    The default value is: ebs-iam.internalhost.com

    OID Port The port used to connect to the OID host. The default is port 3060.
    Bind User The user used for OID access.

    The default value is: cn=oracleuser.

    Bind User Password The Bind User password.
    Base User search base.

    The default is: cn=Users,dc=domain,dc=com

    User Search Attribute

    The attribute to search OID with.

    The default attribute is:CN.

    Matching Attribute

    The Okta attribute used for matching.

    The default attribute to use is: USER_NAME

    General examples:

    • ${ATTRIBUTE@idp]} - single IDP

    • ${ATTRIBUTE@idp[0]} - multiple IDP

    Where ATTRIBUTE is an Okta tenant attribute, not an Access Gateway attribute. This is similar to matching filter in LDAP DataStores.
