Instant messaging, social network intergration using oracle Webcenter

Hello Everyone:
We are in the process of developing converged messaging portal application.
I am trying to understand if the following features are supported using Oracle Webcenter/Oracle weblogic portal:
1. Instant messaging Integration
2. Social Networks like Facebook, Twitter integration.
3. Third party email access like Gmail, yahoo, MSN and so on.
Your pointers or references in this regard are highly appreciated.
Regards,
Andy

I've qnswered this in the webcenter suite - framework forum.
Please don't dubble post threads like this in the feature...

Running webcenter Portal based enterprise application using oracle webcenter content on the java cloud.

And direction on how to use cloud service for a oracle webcenter application based on oracle webcenter content.
We currently have an on premise enterprise application that is built using oracle webcenter,content ,
ADF and connecting to OID for authentication and authorization.
From the document I get the we can have the ADF application deployed.
How about the migration of content.
Can we build a webcenter portal domain?
Can we have OID instance?
Can we have BIP instance on the cloud?

Hello,
You can currently store users of the WebCenter products in the embedded LDAP server provided by the WebLogic server.
As far as I know, BIP or OID are not currently supported in the cloud.

Message Board taskflows - useless in custom WebCenter Portal application?

Hi,
I am developing custom Webcenter portal application. I have added Message Board - wall viewer taskflow (/oracle/webcenter/peopleconnections/wall/controller/taskflows/WallViewer.xml#WallViewer) to the page. In binding parameters, I can set parameters like userId (I have set it to #{securityContext.userName}). After that each user can post to the wall and see his previous entries. But how can I let my user see posts from other users?
I have connected from my portal to WebCenter Spaces via Webservice API. Created group space named 'myspace' with API and added users as members. I also set my custom portal application to use the same database as Spaces application, to be sure that group spaces I create and entries from Message Board will be stored in the same database.
But when I try to use binding paramter spaceName (I set it to #{'myspace'}) I get error message "Failed to find the space of the message board."
So how can I display messages from group space in my custom portal via Message Board taskflow? In custom portal I only managed to achieve situation, where single user can only see his own posts, what makes this taskflow pretty useless

I did further research, maybe this will give you a clue:
I browsed into code of Message Board taskflow (peopleconnections-view.jar -> oracle.webcenter.peopleconnections.wall.controller.taskflows.WallViewer.xml). The first activity in this taskflow is method call - checkGroupSpaceName, which execures method bound as #{pageFlowScope.WCPeopleConnWallViewerBean.checkGroupSpaceName}
I decompiled oracle.webcenter.peopleconnections.wall.internal.view.WallViewerBean class. In checkGroupSpaceName method there is a line
scope = ServiceContext.getContext().findScope(spaceName)
On the jspx page where Message Boards taskflow is added, I've put a line:
<af:outputText value="#{serviceCtx.allScopes}" id="pt_ot2"/>
which displays as output:
[Scope[name=defaultScope, guid=s8bba98ff_4cbb_40b8_beee_296c916a23ed]]
So clearly Webcenter does not "see" the scope of any space, especially it doesn't see "myspace" scope.
Any ideas what do do?

How can I customize the whole oracle webcenter portal

We have a project that uses oracle webcenter portal. I want to customize it starting to its landing page til the content. I tried using extending webcenter spaces project but my build.xml has an error in clicking clean-stage. I followed the instructions correctly but still not working. I also tried following the tutorial about customizing at runtime, it works but its only for a specific tab. Is there any other way in customizing the product?
here is the error in build.xml:

help me pls thx

It assumes that you have this file available in your jdev
${jdeveloper.install.home.directory}/modules/net.sf.antcontrib_1.0.0.0_1-0b2/lib/ant-contrib.jar
Add ant-contrib.jar into jdeveloper\modules\net.sf.antcontrib_1.0.0.0_1-0b2\lib directory. You can download it from http://ant-contrib.sourceforge.net/.

Is it possible to play different sounds for emails and instant messages ?

Hello,
I was wondering if it was possible to play different sounds for emails and instant messages. I am using Thunderbird quite often with both emails and instant messages imported from Gtalk.
I think it would be very convenient to be able to distinguish both sounds as they do not imply the same things.
Thank you very much.

Yahoo Instant Message Indicator

I have a Yahoo Instant Message indicator (smiley face with the # 1 beside it) shows at the top of the screen along side of where other indicators appear such as new email, text message, voicemail - I'm thinking this is an indicator for Yahoo instant message. I only used the instant message in the browser and on my desktop. Although I have no active messages this indicator still appears ... how do I get rid of it??

found solution on another posting ... wasn't searching with the right words on my first attempt....
- it is not a Yahoo instant message
It indicates a message or notification in the BlackBerry Messenger application.
Open Blackberry instant messenger and there should be a message there.

Integrating Oracle WebCenter Discussions with ALUI/OWCI

How easy is it to integrate a WebCenter Discussions Portlet into a WebCenter Interaction Portal (Previously BEA ALUI)? We want to develop a Forum application using Oracle WebCenter Discussions and also add/access it as a portlet to the existing portal running in WebCenter Interaction. Could anyone suggest a good approach to this?

The product you are using at forums.oracle.com is WebCenter Discussion, or what used to be "Jive Forums." It's currently called WebCenter Discussions.
Here's a link for integrating with WC Discussions to give you insight into how it could be done in WebCenter Interaction (WCI):

Oracle Webcenter REST API Authentication

Hi All,
I am getting authentication error while consuming the Webcenter REST API url http://webcenter.us.oracle.com/rest/api/resourceIndex.In Jdeveloper (URL Datacontrol)
So please help me where to Provide the authentication details.
Thanks.

Hi.
You need to add Authentication to your REST requests. Using Oracle WebCenter Portal REST APIs - 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.6.3)
From my experience, I always used REST API from a REST Java Wrapper done by a mate: Oracle Webcenter Portal &amp; Content Tips: Using WebCenter REST API from Java
- Samples snippet of authentication:
When executing code inside of the domain use OIT:
b64EncodedToken = WCSecurityUtility.issueTrustServiceSecurityToken();
String auth = "OIT " + b64EncodedToken;
connection.setRequestProperty(AUTH_PROPERTY, auth);
When executing code for testing in your JUnit or outside, use directly BASIC authentication:
String userpass = "weblogic:weblogic1";
BASE64Encoder encoder = new BASE64Encoder();
b64EncodedToken = encoder.encode(userpass.getBytes());
String auth = "Basic " + b64EncodedToken;
Create a DataControl manually create an instance of the connection depending of the environment.
Take a look in the official documentation and in the blog entry links.
Regards.

How do I integrate Adobe Flex into Oracles Webcenter Interaction portal

We currently use Oracle Webcenter Interaction portal 10gr3 (ALUI Portal)... Does anyone know how or can provide documentation on how to integrate adobe flex into this portal.. Our portal is on windows but it is the java installation of the portal. Any help would be greatly appreciated...
thanks
Laura

While I'd still like others to chime in with anything they may know (or think), I've gleaned the following:
1)
"Oracle will support ALUI for the next 9 years and no customer will be forced to migrate off of ALUI. The long term direction is to migrate key features of ALUI into Web Center. "
2)
"Web Center will be the strategic portal offering. Customers looking to move to Web Center may get credit for their ALUI cost.
We are currently selling Web Center and ALUI as one single suite. So customers buying the suite don’t have to choose between one or the other and get both automatically.
If you are happy with the functionality in ALUI then it would make sense to stick with it till we have more details on migration path, etc."
4)
Publisher : the next release should come out (eventually). The long term direction is Oracle’s UCM (Stellent) product.

Integrating Oracle Social Network with ADF Application in UI

Hello,
I'm new to ADF as well as OSN, I went through the ADF tutorial (Developing RIA Web Applications with Oracle ADF) and understood a little bit.
My requirement is to integrate the Oracle Social Network in the ADF web application UI. I found the link "Implementing Oracle Social Network Integration - 11g Release 7 (11.1.7)"
I'm finding difficulties in following the documentation, particularly the pre-requisites.
* I use JDeveloper version 11.1.1.7.0 and I have downloaded all updates related to webcenter in my JDeveloper.
May I request you to add few more screen shots that explain where to enter the Oracle Social Network URL in JDeveloper.
Else a simple tutorial with screen shots would be a great help!
Thank you,
MC.

MC, the documentation you are looking at is specific to Fusion Apps developers integrating with Oracle Social Network. If you are looking to do generic ADF development including work against OSN then this is probably not the place to start. Are you a Fusion Apps developer, or are you an Oracle Cloud Apps customer that has an application and OSN that you are trying to extend? If you could provide a little more context about what you are trying to achieve we will be able to advise the right route for you to take.
Thanks, Andy
