4.7.1 Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Object Storage

MySQL Shell uses the parameters defined in the OCI CLI configuration file, config, to connect to the Object Storage service. For more information on this file, see SDK and CLI Configuration

MySQL Shell requires the following parameters in the configuration file:

• user: OCID of the user.

• fingerprint: generated fingerprint of the user's public key.

• tenancy: OCID of the user's tenancy.

• region: An Oracle Cloud Infrastructure region.

• key_file: Full path and filename of the user's public key.

The following is an example of a configuration file:

        [default]
        user=ocid1.user.oc1..alphanumericstring
        fingerprint=08:23:60:....:ff:22:dd:55:20
        tenancy=ocid1.tenancy.oc1..alphanumericstring
        region=us-ashburn-1
        key_file=/home/Username/.oci/oci_api_key.pem

If you have installed and configured the OCI CLI, MySQL Shell reads the connection parameters from the default location, .oci/, automatically. To use an alternate configuration, do so from the command line, using the relevant override options.
