Hello everyone, I’m reaching out to the community for some advice on the Oracle HCM Cloud / SailPoint IdentityIQ integration. From what I’ve seen, the standard out-of-the-box connector for Oracle HCM Cloud relies on CSV files to feed data into IIQ. While it works, this feels like a legacy approach…

I have worked with a client that has the older version of the connector (Oracle Fusion HCM) which initially relied on /emps endpoint (employees endpoints) which was later soft deprecated. Oracle silently started throttling the employees endpoints which caused various issues from no data to inconsis…

@mathieug I didn’t work on HCM integration E2E.. but we were also exploring options to connect via REST. HCM does provide REST APIs and we were planning to use a WebServices Connector and also, they can provide us REST for delta syncs as well. I am not fully sure how it can be done, but based on o…

Following, we are interested in the same, the out-of-the-box connector for Oracle HCM Cloud is extremely cumbersome.

We ended up giving up on the built-in connector and created a custom plugin to handle it all instead. I think that Oracle pushed back on how SailPoint was using the API in the previous version of the connector, so it had to be changed to the 3-source convoluted mess that it is currently. Tips: It…

Hello @drardin , Could you explain in more detail how you replace a connector with a custom plugin? It seems to involve a lot of customization and be difficult to maintain in the long term. Thank you. Regards, Mathieu Ghosn

We opened a support ticket to SailPoint to ask for their recommendations and here is their response: According to the SailPoint documentation, delta aggregation is not supported for changes to non-worker details (e.g., first name, email) in the Oracle Atom Feeds API. The document explicitly states…

@mathieug It means OOTB connector has limitations and recommendation is to move with Webservices, if relevant APIs available. Did you reach out to your HCM team?

Hello @neel193 , yes, we have discussed this with the team and the current status is detailed here : Oracle HCM Cloud - #5 by mathieug If I understand correctly, SailPoint doesn’t recommend the WebServices connector, they simply state that in theory, it should work. It seems to me that it’s actually…

Thank you very much for your feedback and for sharing your experience @BhuvaneshGeddam , it is very helpful. I’m marking your message as the solution because we’re moving towards that solution. I also found this article regarding the history of the HCM Fusion connector : https://community.sailpoint…

IdentityIQ (IIQ) IIQ Discussion and Questions

Hello @neel193,

Thank you for your reply.

I noticed in the Oracle documentation that they explicitly recommend against using REST API to sync data from Oracle HCM Cloud.

This is why we are hesitant to go that way. At the end, we don’t have many options, it really comes down to CSV extract or API calls.

Regards,
Mathieu Ghosn
