Deploys an Oracle APEX application (produced by a build workflow using the buildAPEX plugin operation) to a target database. This operation manages deployment of builds produced by both the Full Deployment and Partial Package-Based Deployment models. 

Any supporting database objects for the application are outside the scope of this operation , but can be managed in a separate project and workflows using the JDBC or Oracle Database Plugin.

...

  • If the application has never been deployed and you do not currently have an offset, the plugin can generate the offset. Just select Use APEX Offset (FDAPEX_USE_OFFSET), make sure you note the offset value used and set the propertyAPEX Offset Value (FDAPEX_OFFSET) for the next deployment.  

  • If you know the offset, select Use APEX Offset (FDAPEX_USE_OFFSET) and set the property APEX Offset Value (FDAPEX_OFFSET).

Property Name

Property Code

Required

Description

APEX Workspace Name

code

FDAPEX_WORKSPACE_NAME

Yes

APEX Workspace Name. Provide uppercase name. This defaults to FD_INSTANCE_CODE expression, so if you keep instance code same as your workspace, you will not need to change default value.

If Workspace id is different in each environment, FlexDeploy will still be able to handle that situation by deriving workspace id from workspace name provided.

Parsing Schema

FDAPEX_DB_SCHEMA

No

Parsing schema (owner) of APEX application.

If not provided, value in exported sql file will be used, which means that schema name will be same in all environments.

APEX Application Id

code

FDAPEX_APPLICATION_ID

No

Identifying number of the application. If not specified, workspace name and application name is used to query application id, otherwise new application id will be generated.

APEX Application Name

code

FDAPEX_APPLICATION_NAME

No

The name of the application to deploy. This is used to derive application id if application id is not provided.

APEX Application Alias

FDAPEX_ALIAS

No

Application alias is set on the application being imported. If not provided, then alias set in exported sql files will be used.

Use APEX Offset

code

FDAPEX_USE_OFFSET

No
