Introduction: –
Configuring AI with Oracle APEX Personal Workspace allows us to integrate AI capabilities into our APEX applications. By providing our AI with access to our tables and specifying components like reports, forms, and dashboards, we enable it to generate applications tailored to our needs. This integration simplifies the development process by leveraging AI to automate and enhance application creation. Essentially, we set up the AI with the necessary data and components, and it assists in building and customizing our APEX applications.
The following technologies has been used to achieve the same.
- Oracle APEX
Why we need to do: –
Auto-correcting SQL Queries: AI can automatically identify and correct errors in SQL queries within reports or other objects, ensuring accurate data retrieval and manipulation.
Eliminating Syntax Errors: AI-driven tools can detect and correct syntax errors in real-time, reducing debugging time and ensuring that the code runs smoothly.
Code Formatting and Alignment: AI can automatically align and format code, improving readability and maintaining consistency across the codebase, which is crucial for collaboration and maintainability.
CSS and JavaScript Error Correction: AI can identify and correct syntax errors in CSS and JavaScript, helping developers avoid common pitfalls and ensuring that front-end code is both functional and efficient.
Providing Code Snippets and Suggestions: AI can generate baseline code snippets or suggest improvements, helping developers implement features more efficiently and with fewer errors.
How do we solve:
Step1: Create an account with an AI service, such as Cohere, and copy the API key.
Step2: Select “Workspace Utilities” From the App Builder (or) To go All workspace utilities from the top left corner of the screen, go to the workspace, click the App-Builder drop-down,and select the Workspace Utilities option.
Step3: Once it is open, it shows the Generate AI option from the Utilities list. Select
Generate AI option from the list.
Step4: Click create button to initialize the Generative AI process. It needs some details for integration.Once all this steps are done then click create button.
Step5:Click the “Create” button, and the following pop-up will appear.
Step6: Select the “Create App using Generate AI” option from the list, and the Apex assistant chat window will open.
Step7:After clicking Apex Assistant chat will open. This assistant lets you use natural language to generate application pages based on database tables. Give prompt to create an application.
Note: Without any table we can’t use this option. Atleast one table is needed to use this option.
Step 8: It takes some time to process our request. Once the process is done then click create application button. if you want any modification then give as a additional prompt. otherwise click create application button.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, integrating AI with our Oracle APEX Personal Workspace offers a powerful way to streamline application development, enhance data-driven insights, and create personalized user experiences. By automating the generation of reports, forms, and dashboards, AI significantly reduces the time and effort required to build robust applications. This seamless integration not only accelerates the development process but also opens up new possibilities for innovation within our applications, allowing us to focus more on strategic goals rather than manual tasks.
