Triggering an OIC integration via OCI Events – the Oracle Functions Approach by Stan Tanev

In a two-part blog series I am exploring the available options in triggering an Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC) integration whenever a resource state change occurs within Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). One example of this event based pattern is the ability to trigger an OIC integration as soon as a file is uploaded to OCI Object Storage, thereby removing the need for any scheduled based integrations that rely on file polling.  

In my previous blog, I provided some context and background on the OCI Event service and the available options that we have in triggering an OIC integration. Namely these are the OCI Notifications, Functions, and Streaming services. My previous blog also explored the first of these patterns, and detailed how this event based pattern can be achieved using the OCI Notification Service. In this follow up article I will cover how we can use Oracle Functions to achieve the same outcome.

Intro to Oracle Functions:

To recap, Oracle Functions is a managed, serverless and elastic Functions-as-a-Service offering that is powered by the open-source Fn Project. You can use Oracle Functions when you want to deploy your code or application, without the administrative overhead of maintaining any infrastructure or operating system (OS) software. Oracle Functions ensures your app is highly-available, scalable, secure, and monitored. Read the complete article here.

Basic Error Handling in OIC by Amit Kumar Suman

Oracle Integration Cloud Service provides “Global Fault Handler” to catch errors/faults in orchestrated integration and perform actions. In an event of a fault in an integration it goes to “Global Fault Handler” to perform some user define actions like notifying about error by sending email notification etc. and then stops the flow of integration abruptly with an error state i.e. integration will stop and not move to next logical step. We can add fault handling to any integration type (for example: app driven orchestration, scheduled integration etc.).

Now suppose →when you have to iterate through multiple conditions and need to continue even if one condition fails i.e. you don’t want your integration flow to stop but move on to the next logical step. To achieve this we have to configure “Default Fault Handler” (at Scope Level).

Scope can catch the error and move ahead to the next logical step in the integration.This does not stop the integration abruptly but rather moves to the next logical step(ex. if there is any Loop, loop will continue to execute). Read the complete article here.

Slack Adapter for OIC by Daniel Martins Teixeira

The Slack adapter for Oracle Integration Cloud was released recently and delivers an easy way of Integrating with Slack.

Slack and other platforms with similar capabilities changed the way we work, and the way we interact with our colleagues. The boost in productivity and collaboration with these types of platforms is incredible. Slack is also a verb nowadays (let me slack you), that alone is enough to show its impact !

Slack Adapter Capabilities

The Slack Adapter offers outbound integration with Slack on the Oracle Integration platform. You can create outbound integrations that invoke the Slack application so you can manage channels, invite users, get profile information, manage chat and groups, upload files, and perform search operations. More details on the documentation page.

Use Cases

The first use case that comes to mind is about notifications – Traditionally a notification is an email – but instead of relying on an email, you can publish those notifications into a dedicated channel, or tag the proper team/individual. This will allow a transparent handling and collaboration of all notifications!

Let’s now think on Sales Orders – When a new order/opportunity is created in the CRM system you can create a new slack channel with all team members, or you can tag someone that has a particular task waiting to be fulfilled for example. Read the complete article here.
