Conventions used

There are a number of text conventions used throughout this book.

Code in text: Indicates code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: “Mount the downloaded WebStorm-10*.dmg disk image file as another disk in your system.”

A block of code is set as follows:

BEGIN
DBMS_CLOUD.CREATE_CREDENTIAL(
credential_name => 'Credential_Name',
username => 'Cloud_UserName',
password => '<authorization_token>'
);
END;
/

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

ALTER DATABASE PROPERTY SET DEFAULT_CREDENTIAL = 'ADMIN.OBJSTORE_CRED';

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

SQL>  create directory dump_dir as 'datapump_dir';
Directory created.
SQL> select directory_name , directory_path from dba_directories;

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see onscreen. For instance, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in bold. Here is an example: "Click on Identity | Users."
