More About the Approval Process

If you are using Email Verification, when an Oracle Application Express administrator approves a workspace request, the following events occur:

  1. An email containing a verification link is sent to the user.

  2. When user clicks the verification link, the workspace is created.

  3. Another email is sent to the user containing login credentials (that is, the workspace name, User ID, and password).

  4. The status of the workspace request changes from Accepted to Approved.

If the user fails to click the verification link, you can quickly delete the request by clicking the DELETE link in the Action column.

When an Error Occurs

If an error occurs during the workspace creation process, the status of the request reverts to Requested and an email is sent to the user containing the following message:

Please contact administrator.

Once the issue is resolved, the administrator can again repeat the previous procedure and approve the request.
