Creating End Users

After moving your application to a production environment, you need to create user accounts within Oracle Application Express for all your end users.

To create end user accounts:

1. Navigate to the Workspace home page.

2. From the Administration links list on the right, click Manage Application Express Users.

3. Under the Tasks list on the right, click the Create End User link.

   The Create User page appears.

4. Under Account Control:

   • Set Account Availability - Select Unlocked.

   • Require Change of Password On First Use - Select No if you do not want to force this user to change his or her password at first log in.

5. Under User Identification, enter the appropriate information:

   1. User Name - Enter a user name for this end user.

   2. Password and Confirm Password - Enter a case-sensitive password for this account.

   3. Email Address - Enter the valid email address for this end user.

6. Under Developer Privileges:

   1. Accessible Schemas (null for all) - Leave this blank to allow the end user to access all applications in the workspace, or enter a colon-delimited list of schemas to restrict the end user's access.

      If a user does not have access to the schema that an application is built on, the user cannot access the application.

   2. Default Schema - Accept the default value, that is, the schema you set up for this guide.

   3. User is a developer - Accept the default, No.

   4. User is a workspace administrator - Accept the default, No.

      Selecting No limits the user to only accessing and using the application, not modifying the application itself.

7. Under User Groups, you can select a user group.

   You can use groups to restrict access to various parts of an application. Groups are primarily useful when using Application Express Authentication.

8. Under Additional Attributes, you can enter additional user information.

9. Click Create User or Create and Create Another.
