Oracle Cloud Infrastructure

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is a computing service providing servers, storage, network, applications, and services.

Creating a User Account for Lucidum

Before configuring the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure connector in Lucidum, you must first create a user account for Lucidum. Lucidum will use the user account to access the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure API.

To fetch information from Oracle Cloud API, you first need to create a user and put that user in at least one IAM group with any desired read-only permissions. For more details, see https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/GSG/Tasks/addingusers.htm. For example, the policy created in the tenancy may be: Common Policies (oracle.com)

Allow group [user_iam_group] to inspect all-resources in tenancy
