Connecting to Data Sources on the Mac

Complete the procedure in this topic to log in to Office 365, your cloud service, and Smart View (Mac and Browser) on the Mac.

To log in to your environment:

  1. On a Mac, start Excel 365 and log in to your Office 365 account.

    A Smart View ribbon is displayed along with the other Excel 365 ribbons.

  2. Select the Smart View ribbon, and then click Home.

    In the Smart View panel, to the right of the Excel sheet, the Oracle Cloud login information is displayed.

  3. Enter your user name and password, and then click Go.

    You are now connected to the environment and should see the library folders and cubes in the Smart View panel.

    Note:

    • Starting in 21.09, an "Update is available" message is displayed when starting Oracle Smart View for Office (Mac and Browser). A new or updated manifest file is required to use the update. End users can ignore the message and continue using Smart View. Administrators can click on Get update, which will take them to the Create Manifest File page where they can create a new manifest file or update the existing one and deploy it to users.
    • To resolve any login issues after a monthly provider update or deployment of a new or modified manifest file, try clearing the Office and Web cache for Excel. See Clearing the Office and Web Cache on a Mac.
