How Do I Set Up VB Studio?

Using VB Studio's hosted development platform, you and your team can develop new visual applications or customize certain Oracle Cloud Applications by extending them. These extensions are then managed just like any other VB Studio artifact. You can also develop software applications using any language you choose.

Before your team can use VB Studio you, as the administrator, need to set it up, configure it, add your team members to Oracle Identity Cloud Service (IDCS), and assign them proper roles.
Note

Only one IDCS is supported per service instance.

Most administrators will follow this path to set up VB Studio:

Everyone needs to read and follow the instance setup procedures in Create an Oracle Visual Builder Studio Generation 2 Instance. After that, the path you follow to set up VB Studio depends on what you want to do:
  1. If you want to set things up so you and your users can extend (customize) Oracle Cloud Applications, you can go directly to Set Up VB Studio to Extend Oracle Cloud Applications.
  2. If you plan on creating visual applications hosted on an instance of Visual Builder, go to the Set Up VB Studio for Developing Visual Applications chapter.
  3. If you want to manage a large software development project that uses Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) cloud services and doesn’t involve either Oracle Cloud Applications or visual applications, work through Set Up VB Studio for CI/CD.

The other chapters in this guide are intended for use on an as-needed basis.
