+# When to use this asset?
+Use this asset when you need to integrate Oracle APEX with OCI Cloud Services via REST APIs to automate tasks, manage resources, or access data stored in OCI services. This asset is ideal when your application requires operations such as uploading files to OCI Object Storage, querying data from Autonomous Databases, or managing OCI resources like compute instances or network configurations. It’s particularly useful for applications that need secure, scalable, and programmatic access to OCI services without requiring direct user interaction or manual handling of OCI resources. Use this asset to streamline cloud operations, automate workflows, or enable APEX apps to communicate with OCI in real time.
+
+# How to use this asset?
+This asset enables the integration of Oracle APEX with OCI Cloud Services using REST APIs. To use it, you need to set up authentication by generating API signing keys and obtaining necessary OCI identifiers (Tenancy OCID, User OCID, Compartment OCID, and API key fingerprint). Once authenticated, you can install the asset in APEX, configure it with OCI service endpoints, and use APEX’s REST capabilities or PL/SQL to interact with OCI services like Object Storage or Autonomous Database.

+# When to use this asset?
+Use this asset when you need to integrate Oracle APEX with services like Identity Cloud Service (IDCS) for authentication, Oracle Analytics Cloud (OAC) for embedding analytics and reports, Oracle Digital Assistant (ODA) for chatbot functionality, or OCI AI Services for adding generative AI features. These methods are ideal when pre-built connectors and simpler integration approaches are more efficient than REST APIs, especially for tasks like SSO setup, real-time data visualization, or interactive AI-driven features in APEX.
+
+
+# How to use this asset?
+To use this asset, follow specific integration steps based on the service you're working with:
+
+- Set up SSO with IDCS for secure authentication in APEX.
+- Embed OAC for analytics or report generation, using APEX to pass data or manage visualizations.
+- Integrate ODA to add chatbot functionality to your APEX apps, allowing natural language interaction.
+- Configure Generative AI with Select AI to enable intelligent automation and AI features in APEX.
