# Oracle HCM / Taleo OAuth Credentials Guide
------
_April 6, 2026_

To connect Oracle HCM / Taleo to Unified, you only need to collect these 3 values from Oracle:

- Client ID
- Client Secret
- Servername

You will enter those directly into Unified.


## **What To Enter In Unified**


When creating the Oracle HCM / Taleo connection, fill in:

- Client ID
- Client Secret
- Servername

**Example Servername**


## **How To Get These Values From Oracle**



**1. Find Your Servername**


Ask your Oracle administrator for your Oracle Fusion HCM host name.


It usually looks like:
`<tenant>.fa.<region>.oraclecloud.com`
Example:
[`example.fa.us2.oraclecloud.com`](https://example.fa.us2.oraclecloud.com/)


This exact value is what you should enter into Unified as the Servername.



**2. Create A Confidential Application In Oracle**

1. Sign in to Oracle as an administrator
2. Open Integrated applications
3. Click Add application
4. Choose Confidential Application
5. Enter a name such as Unified Oracle HCM Integration
6. Continue through the setup

**3. Enable OAuth Client Access**


During application setup, make sure OAuth client access is enabled for the application.


For this Unified connection, Oracle should issue credentials for a confidential application that can request access tokens for the HCM / Taleo APIs.


Your Oracle administrator may need to:

- enable OAuth for the app
- allow the app to access the appropriate Oracle HCM / Taleo resources
- activate the application once setup is complete

**4. Copy The Credentials**


After the confidential application is created and activated, open the application details and copy:

- Client ID
- Client Secret

These are the exact values to enter into Unified.


## **Final Checklist**


Before creating the connection in Unified, make sure you have:

- Client ID
- Client Secret
- Servername
