The Browse interface appears by default while accessing the Oracle Integration Repository. You can also access the Browse interface by clicking Browse on the search page or any interface information page.
You can browse directly to an appropriate list of interfaces if you know which product family and product you want to integrate with, plus one of the following:
Business entity
Business entities are objects that either perform business activities or have business activities performed on them. Sales orders, employees, purchase orders, customers, and receipts are all examples of business entities. An interface can be used by multiple business entities, and a business entity can be accessed using multiple interfaces.
Interface type
Business interface information in Oracle Integration Repository is organized for browsing and searching by interface type, based on the integration technology used.
For more information, see Interface Types.
Integration standard
XML Gateway and Web service-based interfaces conform to various industry standards.
For more information, see Integration Standards.
Instead of browsing through the integration endpoints from the repository, you can perform a search to locate your desired interfaces or services. See Searching for an Integration Interface.
Oracle Integration Repository allows you to browse integration interfaces or services by selecting one of the following views from the View By list:
