Updated November 18, 2018 Added a help utility to populate an Oracle Wallet with root certificates

Oracle Database 18c Express Edition comes with a usable Oracle Wallet. In a previous article, I had described how to:

1. Obtain the certificates necessary to make a successful SSL/TLS connection.
2. Create and add these certificates to the Oracle Wallet.
3. Configure the APEX instance to use the wallet.

Someone had asked in the comments, what certificates were necessary for Social Sign-in in Oracle Application Express (APEX) to work. It's something that I think most of us would like to know too, so I did a little more digging and here's what I found for three of the more popular social platforms: Google, Facebook and Microsoft.

• Added settings for social sign-in with Microsoft OAuth2.

The much anticipated Oracle Application Express version 18.1 was announced on May 24, 2018. Since early this year Monty Latiolais has been posting a monthly series of blog posts on Power Ranking Oracle APEX 18.1 New Features. My personal favourite is Social Login, but unfortunately it never made it to the top, even though it should!

ICYMI, early access for Oracle Application Express was opened for workspace requests erlier this month. Like every other APEX fan out there, I was of course eager to get my hands dirty. Guess what was the first upcoming feature I took for a test drive?
