Step 2: Configure the Instance Object Storage Bucket

You must specify the Swift URL location and user name and password credentials of your existing object storage bucket instance before you can create export and import archives of design-time metadata on the Import and Export page.

To complete the fields on this page, an object storage bucket instance must already exist. Otherwise, you must create a new instance. See Step 1: Create an Object Storage Bucket and Construct the Storage URL.
  1. In the navigation pane, click Settings, then Storage.
  2. Enter the following details. You specified these details when creating your object storage bucket. See Step 1: Create an Object Storage Bucket and Construct the Storage URL.
    Element Description
    Name Enter the name of the object storage bucket.
    Swift URL

    Enter the object storage bucket Swift URL you constructed.

    For example:

    https://swiftobjectstorage.us-ashburn-1.oraclecloud.com/v1/paasdevoic/cloneRepo

    See Step 1: Create an Object Storage Bucket and Construct the Storage URL.

    User Specify the object storage bucket user name.

    The user name and password were created when you generated the token in the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console. See Step 1: Create an Object Storage Bucket and Construct the Storage URL.

    Note: Ensure that the user name is prefixed with the domain name. For example:
    primordialidcsprovider/clone-test-user

    You can also get this user name from your profile link in the top right corner of the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console.

    Not specifying the domain name can result in an error. See Object Storage Bucket Error Creation.

    Password Specify the password.


    The Instance Storage page shows fields for Name, Swift URL, Username, and Password.

  3. Click Save. You can now export and import archives of design-time metadata on the Import and Export page.
