Oracle Identity Cloud Service (IDCS) enhancement request

ATTENTION Oracle HFM Development team

Oracle is using Oracle Identity Cloud Service (IDCS) to provide SSO access to the IAC HFM environment they host.

 It is apparent, and has been confirmed by an Oracle FM API developer that IDCS is not compatible with the Oracle FM JAVA APIs.

Various solutions/connections to HFM (used by hundreds of customers) use the Financial Management Java APIs to connect to HFM, but because of the way IDCS interacts with Shared Services the standard API connection function does not work so users are unable to connect to HFM.

 Specifically, the line of Java code used to connect to Shared Services to get the SSO token is: ssoToken = HSSUtilManager.getSecurityManager().authenticateUser(username, password);
