An Oracle account stores the credentials for one Oracle database user. Members connect to the database through the Infisical CLI, and Infisical records every statement they run.

​
Prerequisites

  • The Admin role on the folder you’ll add the account to
  • A gateway that can reach the database
  • An Oracle account template
  • An Oracle password of 30 characters or fewer, because the gateway can’t sign in with a longer one

​
Create the account

1
Go to Privileged Access Management > Accounts and select Add Account.
2
Select the Folder and an Oracle Account Template, then select Next.
3
Enter a Name and the connection details:
4
Enter the credentials:
5
Select Create.
When you select Create, Infisical only checks that it can reach the host and port. The first credential health check checks the username and password, and reports Out of Sync if Oracle rejects them.

The proxy keeps running in that terminal. In a second terminal, connect your Oracle client, such as sqlplus or SQL Developer, to the port:
