NYOUG 2018 Fall General Meeting: APEX 18.1 and the REST of the world

NYOUG 2018 Fall General Meeting: APEX 18.1 and the REST of the world

One of the marquee features of Application Express 18.1 is the improved support to consume external REST services and REST enabled SQL. In this session you will learn how to reference external REST services as Web Source Modules and how to create reports, Charts, Calendars or other components using these. Remote Oracle database can be accessed as REST Enabled SQL services: Create an APEX component driven by a SQL query as before – but have it executed on a remote Oracle database over a REST interface using HTTPS and JSON. The session will also cover how to work with external data sources in custom PL/SQL code or as a Plug-In developer. Some tips and tricks will round the session up.
