Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC) provides user management capabilities to manage user access, permissions, and roles within the platform. These features help administrators control who can perform actions in OIC, access integrations, and use the various services and resources available. Here’s an overview of user management in Oracle Integration Cloud:

1. User Roles and Permissions:
   1. OIC uses a role-based access control (RBAC) system where users are assigned roles, and each role has specific permissions and privileges.
   2. Common roles in OIC include Administrator, Designer, Monitor, and Consumer, each with different levels of access to OIC features and resources.
2. User Provisioning:
   1. Administrators can provision users by adding them to OIC and assigning them appropriate roles. This process typically involves specifying the user’s email, username, and role assignment.
   2. User provisioning can be done manually or integrated with identity and access management (IAM) systems for automated user onboarding and offboarding.
3. Role Assignment:
   1. Users can be assigned one or more roles based on their responsibilities and the tasks they need to perform within OIC.
   2. Roles can be assigned at both the service and integration level, allowing for fine-grained access control.
4. Custom Roles (Policy Definitions):
   1. OIC allows you to create custom roles (policy definitions) to define specific permissions for users. This enables more precise control over user access to resources.
5. Single Sign-On (SSO):
   1. OIC supports single sign-on using identity providers (IdPs) like Oracle Identity Cloud Service (IDCS), Microsoft Azure AD, or other SAML-based providers. This enhances security and user convenience.
6. Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA):
   1. Administrators can configure MFA for added security, requiring users to provide multiple forms of verification during login.
7. Password Policies:
   1. OIC provides options to enforce password policies, such as password complexity requirements and password expiration rules.
8. User Deactivation and Removal:
   1. Administrators can deactivate or remove user accounts as needed, revoking their access to OIC.
9. User Auditing and Activity Logs:
   1. OIC maintains logs of user activities, allowing administrators to track who performed what actions in the platform.
10. User Notifications:
    1. Users can receive notifications and alerts related to their integrations and tasks, helping them stay informed about important events.
11. Integration with Identity and Access Management (IAM):
    1. OIC can be integrated with Oracle Identity Cloud Service (IDCS) or other IAM systems for centralized user management and authentication.
12. Self-Service User Profile Management:
    1. Users often have self-service options to update their profiles, change passwords, and manage their preferences.
