How to create Named Credentials in OEM 12c
In this tutorial we will demonstrate how to create "Named Credential in OEM 12c". Administrators can define and store a credential with an object name and that specific name can then be used to do activities against a target. What is extremely powerful about named credentials is the fact that the user who is accessing a target or running a job using a named credential in EM12c, never actually sees the username and password associated with the named credential. There are several rules in EM12c around access for named credentials
- Only the owner of a named credential can grant access to that named credential to other users
- EM Super Administrators cannot get privileges on a new named credential until they are explicitly granted privileges on the named credential
- EM Administrators can't see the sensitive data in a named credential (such as passwords) from the user interface regardless of their privilege levels
- Credentials cannot be assigned to roles
- An EM Administrator cannot view other administrator credentials unless they have been explicitly granted access to it
- An EM Administrator can create their own named credentials and always have full privileges on the named credentials they own
