Is a certificate required when integrating World Check One with Oracle ORDS?

In our use case, we wish to integrate our in-house developed application with World Check One. Our application was built using the Oracle platform -- Oracle DB for the backend and Oracle APEX for the front end. REST API calls are built off of the Oracle ORDS technology. Our question is multi-part...

1. Will we need to install a private certificate into the Oracle Wallet to be able to initiate API calls with WC One?

2. If so, how do we go about requesting for a copy of the certificate?

3. Have you integrated with other clients that are using the Oracle RDBMS platform? If so, based on your experience with them, besides the certificate, what other things do we need to be able to successfully set up integration with WC One (not including security credentials as we already have the API Key and API Secret)?


Thank you.

    - Click on "Details" then select "Copy to file"

    - Click on "Next"

    - Select "Base-64" then click on "Next"

    - Browse path and then import the certificate.

    - Follow the same steps to get the "COMODO RSA" certificate



    3. You will have to use the "Certificates" and then "TLS 1.2", if these two are supported, the API request send from oracle should successfully reach us.
