Using SQL Developer with BIPublisher Oracle Cloud HCM


it's been 2 months I'm working for a new client on BI Reporting on Oracle BI Publisher within an OracleCloud CRM and HCM. to make query to OracleCloud database I have to use notepad++ and then copy/past my query in the Query textArea on BIPublisher (which is a simple text area without any syntaxe check or color), I was wondering if there are some experts who might know a way to connect SQL Developer to OracleCloud database so I can run my queries directly without copy/past on the browser. thank you a lot


Solution

  • There's no direct access to the underlying Oracle Database from your SaaS subscription.

    We (the SQL Developer team) are working with a few of the SaaS business owners to make SQL Developer Web available for their subscribers. This would allow you to run queries directly against your database w/o having to do the copy/paste jump you're doing today in BI Publisher.

    I cannot provide guidance on when this will happen or even if your particular services will make it available.

    The TL;DR answer to your question is 'No, but we are working on it'
