With the introduction of Oracle Database Multilingual Engine (MLE), it is possible to run JavaScript directly in Oracle Database. For more information about MLE, see Introduction to Oracle Database Multilingual Engine in the Oracle Database JavaScript Developer's Guide.

The JavaScript feature in Database Actions supports JavaScript code development in Oracle Database 23c and later versions. To use this feature in Database Actions, you must first understand the concepts about MLE, which is explained in detail in the Oracle Database JavaScript Developer's Guide.

In the JavaScript interface, you can:

• Managing MLE Modules
• Managing MLE Environments
• Managing MLE Call Specifications
• Executing JavaScript Code Snippets and Debugging MLE Modules

To navigate to the JavaScript page:

• In the Launchpad page, select the Development tab and click JavaScript.

• Click Selector to display the navigation menu. Under Development, select JavaScript.
