Get the Required OCI Input Values

Every Oracle Cloud Infrastructure resource has an Oracle-assigned unique ID called an Oracle Cloud Identifier (OCID).

To connect to OCI, you need the account's tenancy OCID, home region, the OCID of the compartment that hosts VB Studio resources, and the OCID and the fingerprint of the user who can access the VB Studio compartment. To connect to OCI Object Storage, you need the Storage namespace. You can get these values from the OCI Console pages.

This table describes how to get the OCI input values required for the connection.

To get these values ... Do this:
Tenancy OCID, Home Region, and Storage Namespace
