Adding Security to your Database Application Using Oracle Application Express 5.0
Purpose
This tutorial shows you how to add security to your application using Oracle Application Express.
Time to Complete
Approximately 40 minutes.
Overview
Oracle Application Express (Oracle APEX) is a rapid web application development tool for the Oracle database. Using only a web browser and limited programming experience, you can develop and deploy professional applications that are both fast and secure. Oracle Application Express is available with the Oracle Database, whether it's on-premises or in the Oracle Cloud.
In this tutorial, you use Oracle Application Express Release 5.0 to create and run a database application.
Please keep in mind the following while running this tutorial:
- Logging into your Oracle Application Express workspace: Your Oracle Application Express workspace may reside in an on-premises Oracle Database or in Oracle Database Cloud Services. The login credentials differ depending on where your workspace is located:
- Logging into Oracle Application Express in a Oracle Database Cloud Service: Reference the Oracle Help Center for your Oracle Database Cloud Service. To do this, go to the Oracle Help Center for Cloud, and select Platform and Infrastructure. From here, select your Database Cloud Service and the Get Started page will appear.
- Logging in to Oracle Application Express on-premises: From your browser, go to the location of your on-premises installation of your Oracle Application Express workspace provided by your Workspace Administrator.
- Application ID: Screenshots in this tutorial show a blurred Application ID. Your Application ID can be any value assigned automatically while creating the application.
- Schema: If you are accessing an Oracle Application Express workspace in Database Schema Service, you have one schema assigned to you with a schema name that you cannot change. If you are accessing the workspace in an on-premises Oracle database, you may have more than one schema assigned to your workspace by the Oracle Application Express Instance Administrator.
What Do You Need?
Before starting this tutorial, you should have:
- Access to an Oracle Database 11g or later release, either on-premises or in a Database Cloud Service.
- Installed Oracle Application Express Release 5.0 into your Oracle Database (for on-premises only).
- Download and unzipped the files.zip file into your working directory.
- Configure the database and the application environment by performing any one of the following:

Now that you have users defined, you can restrict access to certain portions of the application. In this topic, you allow only certain users to edit tasks. To do this, perform the following steps:
Add an Access Control Page
To secure the application so that only privileged users can perform certain operations, you create an Access Control Page that is used to define which users can access which part of the application. Perform the following steps:
-
Click Project Tasks Application.
Description of this image -
Click Create Page >.
Description of this image -
Click Access Control.
Description of this image -
Enter 7 for Administration Page Number, and click Next >.
Description of this image -
Ensure Do not associate this page with a navigation menu entry is selected for Navigation Preference, and clickNext >.
Description of this image -
Click Create.
Description of this image
Note: Oracle Application Express creates two internal tables calledAPEX_ACCESS_SETUP
andAPEX_ACCESS_CONTROL
along with the Access Control Administration page. -
The Access Control Administration page is created. Click Save and Run Page.
Description of this image -
If the Log In screen appears, enter your Oracle Application Express credentials, and click Log In.
Description of this image -
The Access Control Administration page opens. Notice that the page is divided into two regions called Application Administration and Access Control List. The default setting for the Application Mode is "Full Access to all, access control list is not used". In this tutorial, you want to restrict certain users from accessing certain features of this application.
Description of this image
Select Restricted access. Only users defined in the access control list are allowed for Application Mode, and click Set Application Mode. -
The Application mode is set. In the next topic, you identify your privileged users. Click Add User in the Access Control List region.

Identify Privileged Users
In one of the previous sections, you created 3 users: Brad.Knight, John.Bell and Susie.Parker. In this topic, you identify your application's privileged users as follows:
- Brad.Knight is allowed to edit the application but not allowed to change any user access.
- John.Bell can only view the information in the application, and he can not make any changes to the application or user access.
- Susie.Parker is the administrator of the application, and therefore she is allowed to edit the application as well as user access.
Perform the following steps:
-
Enter john.bell for Username, select View for Privilege, and click Add User.
Description of this image -
Enter brad.knight for Username, select Edit for Privilege, and click Add User.
Description of this image -
Enter susie.parker for Username, select Administrator for Privilege, and click Apply Changes.

Apply Authorization Schemes to Your Application Components
You want to create an authorization scheme, such that:
- The users with View privileges can review the Employee Information but can not change it.
- The users with Edit privileges can make changes to Employee Information but can not make changes to the access control list.
- The users with Administrator privileges can make any changes, including to the access control list.
Perform the following steps:
-
Click Edit Application Properties.
Description of this image -
Click the Security tab.
Description of this image -
Select access control - view for Authorization Scheme, and click Apply Changes.
Description of this image -
Now that you have given access to the application for view privileged users, you can restrict edit privileged users to the Employee Information. Click 2 - Projects.
Description of this image -
Under Rendering, click the small triangle icon beside Columns.
Description of this image -
Click PROJECT_ID.
Description of this image -
In the property editor, under Security, select access control - edit for Authorization Scheme, and click Save.
Description of this image -
You also want the Create Button to appear only if the user has Edit or Administrator privileges. In the Rendering tab, under Region Buttons, click CREATE.
Description of this image -
In the property editor, under Security, select access control - edit for Authorization Scheme, and click Save.
Description of this image -
Even though you restricted the view privileged users from editing the Projects page, they can still access page 3 (Projects Master Detail page) by entering the correct URL in the browser's address bar. To prevent direct access to page 3, enter 3 in the Page Search field, and click Go.
Description of this image -
Make sure Page 3 is selected in the Rendering tab. In the property editor, under Security, select access control - edit for Authorization Scheme, and click Save and Run Page.
Description of this image -
Since, previously, you logged in as a user who is not defined in the access control list, you see an error message as shown below. Click Application<n> in the developer toolbar.
Description of this image -
Since only users with the administrator privileges are allowed to make changes to the access control list, you need to set an authorization scheme for this page. Click 3 - Access Control Administration.
Description of this image -
In the property editor, under Security, select access control - administrator for Authorization Scheme, and clickSave.
Description of this image -
Enter 101 in the page search field, and click Go.
Description of this image -
Click Save and Run Page.
Description of this image -
Enter brad.knight for Username, qweQWE123! for Password, and click Log In.
Description of this image -
Click Manage Projects and Tasks in the Navigation Menu.
Description of this image -
Notice that the Create button is visible on the Projects page because brad.knight is defined as an edit privileged user. Click the edit icon beside Email Integration.
Description of this image -
Notice that brad.knight can edit the Projects. Click Log out.
Description of this image -
Enter john.bell for Username, qweQWE123! for Password, and click Log In.
Description of this image -
Click Manage Projects and Tasks in the Navigation Menu.
Description of this image -
Notice that the Create button is not visible and edit icon is not displayed beside any project in this page because john.bell is defined as a view privileged user.
Description of this image -
Now, let us try accessing Page 3 (Projects Master Detail page) by changing the page number in the URL as explained below:
Description of this image
Example url …/f?p=2018:2:2101953412249296357::NO
Change to …/f?p=2018:3:2101953412249296357::NO
Press the Enter key and notice that you receive a message denying you access to the page because you restricted Page 3 to edit privileged users only. Click the Application <n> link in the Developer tool bar. -
Click 101 - Login Page.
Description of this image -
Click Save and Run Page.
Description of this image -
Enter susie.parker for Username, qweQWE123! for Password, and click Log In.
Description of this image -
Click Manage Projects and Tasks in the Navigation Menu.
Description of this image -
Notice that the Create button is visible on the Projects page because susie.parker is defined as an administrator. Click the edit icon beside Email Integration.
Description of this image -
Notice that susie.parker can edit the Projects.
Description of this image -
Change the page number in the URL to open the Access Control Administration page as explained below:
Description of this image
Example url …/f?p=2018:3:2101953412249296357::NO
Change to …/f?p=2018:7:2101953412249296357::NO
Press the Enter key and notice that you can access this page because susie.parker is created with administrator privileges. Click Log Out.
