Set up an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure connector

C1 provides identity governance for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Integrate your Oracle Cloud Infrastructure instance with C1 to run user access reviews (UARs) and enable just-in-time access requests.

Secrets - API keys

This connector can sync secrets and display them on the Inventory page.

Gather Oracle Cloud Infrastructure credentials

Configuring the connector requires you to pass in credentials generated in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Gather these credentials before you move on.

An Oracle Cloud Infrastructure user with the ability to create API keys plus the following permissions (through direct assignment or group membership) must perform this task:

• Allow group <GROUP> to inspect users in tenancy
• Allow group <GROUP> to inspect groups in tenancy
• Allow group <GROUP> to inspect user-group-memberships in tenancy
• Allow group <GROUP> to inspect policies in tenancy

Look up your OCI tenant’s OCID

1. In the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure console, navigate to Governance & Administration > Organization Management > Tenancies.

2. Copy and save the tenancy OCID.

Look up your user OCID

1. In the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure console, navigate to Identity > My profile.

2. Copy and save the user OCID.

Look up your region

Make a note of your region, such as us-sanjose-1.

Generate an API key pair

1. In the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure console, navigate to Identity > My profile > Tokens and keys > API keys.

2. Click Add API key then select Generate API key pair.

3. Download the public and private key files that are generated for you.

Done. Next, move on to the connector configuration instructions.

Configure the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure connector

To complete this task, you’ll need:

• The Connector Administrator or Super Administrator role in C1
• Access to the set of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure credentials generated by following the instructions above

Cloud-hosted

Follow these instructions to use a built-in, no-code connector hosted by C1.

1. In C1, navigate to Integrations > Connectors and click Add connector.

2. Search for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and click Add.

3. Choose how to set up the new Oracle Cloud Infrastructure connector:

   • Add the connector to a currently unmanaged app (select from the list of apps that were discovered in your identity, SSO, or federation provider that aren’t yet managed with C1)

   • Add the connector to a managed app (select from the list of existing managed apps)

   • Create a new managed app

4. Set the owner for this connector. You can manage the connector yourself, or choose someone else from the list of C1 users. Setting multiple owners is allowed.

   If you choose someone else, C1 will notify the new connector owner by email that their help is needed to complete the setup process.

5. Click Next.

6. Find the Settings area of the page and click Edit.

7. Enter the Tenancy OCID, User OCID, Region, and Fingerprint into the relevant fields.

8. Click Choose file and upload the Private key.

9. Optional. Enable Sync secrets to display them on the Inventory page.

10. Click Save.

11. The connector’s label changes to Syncing, followed by Connected. You can view the logs to ensure that information is syncing.

Done. Your Oracle Cloud Infrastructure connector is now pulling access data into C1.

Self-hosted

Follow these instructions to use the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure connector, hosted and run in your own environment.

When running in service mode on Kubernetes, a self-hosted connector maintains an ongoing connection with C1, automatically syncing and uploading data at regular intervals. This data is immediately available in the C1 UI for access reviews and access requests.

Contact C1’s support team to download the latest version of the connector.

Step 1: Set up a new Oracle Cloud Infrastructure connector

1. In C1, navigate to Integrations > Connectors > Add connector.

2. Search for Baton and click Add.

3. Choose how to set up the new Oracle Cloud Infrastructure connector:

   • Add the connector to a currently unmanaged app (select from the list of apps that were discovered in your identity, SSO, or federation provider that aren’t yet managed with C1)

   • Add the connector to a managed app (select from the list of existing managed apps)

   • Create a new managed app

4. Set the owner for this connector. You can manage the connector yourself, or choose someone else from the list of C1 users. Setting multiple owners is allowed.

   If you choose someone else, C1 will notify the new connector owner by email that their help is needed to complete the setup process.

5. Click Next.

6. In the Settings area of the page, click Edit.

7. Click Rotate to generate a new Client ID and Secret.

   Carefully copy and save these credentials. We’ll use them in Step 2.

Step 2: Create Kubernetes configuration files

Create two Kubernetes manifest files for your Oracle Cloud Infrastructure connector deployment:

Secrets configuration

# baton-oracle-cloud-infrastructure-secrets.yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: baton-oracle-cloud-infrastructure-secrets
type: Opaque
stringData:
  # C1 credentials
  BATON_CLIENT_ID: <C1 client ID>
  BATON_CLIENT_SECRET: <C1 client secret>
  
  # Oracle Cloud Infrastructure credentials
  BATON_TENANCY_OCID: <Oracle Cloud Infrastructure tenant OCID>
  BATON_USER_OCID: <Oracle Cloud Infrastructure user OCID>
  BATON_REGION: <Oracle Cloud Infrastructure region (such as "us-sanjose-1")>
  BATON_FINGERPRINT: <Oracle Cloud Infrastructure public key fingerprint>
  BATON_PRIVATE_KEY: <Oracle Cloud Infrastructure private key, in PEM format>

  # Optional: include if you want C1 to sync secrets
  BATON_SYNC_SECRETS: true

See the connector’s README or run --help to see all available configuration flags and environment variables.

Deployment configuration

# baton-oracle-cloud-infrastructure.yaml
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: baton-oracle-cloud-infrastructure
  labels:
    app: baton-oracle-cloud-infrastructure
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: baton-oracle-cloud-infrastructure
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:
        app: baton-oracle-cloud-infrastructure
        baton: true
        baton-app: oracle-cloud-infrastructure
    spec:
      containers:
      - name: baton-oracle-cloud-infrastructure
        image: ghcr.io/conductorone/baton-oracle-cloud-infrastructure:latest
        imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
        env:
        - name: BATON_HOST_ID
          value: baton-oracle-cloud-infrastructure
        envFrom:
        - secretRef:
            name: baton-oracle-cloud-infrastructure-secrets

Step 3: Deploy the connector

1. Create a namespace in which to run C1 connectors (if desired), then apply the secret config and deployment config files.

2. Check that the connector data uploaded correctly. In C1, click Apps. On the Managed apps tab, locate and click the name of the application you added the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure connector to. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure data should be found on the Entitlements and Accounts tabs.

Done. Your Oracle Cloud Infrastructure connector is now pulling access data into C1.
