What is Mobile Integration?
Mobile integration connects different apps and devices to achieve seamless data exchange and optimized workflows. It helps increase flexibility and improve the efficiency of various business processes. For instance, with mobile integration, you can turn your smartphone into a unified communications device with voice calling, video conferencing, messaging, call routing, file sharing, and reporting capabilities.
How does mobile integration work in cloud?
Mobile integration in business phone systems allows you to handoff a VoIP call from a smartphone to a desk phone and back seamlessly. You can also share access to contacts across both devices, enjoy Wi-Fi connectivity to untether you from the desk phone, and charge mobile devices directly from the desk phone.
Why is mobile integration important?
Today, mobile app integration provides you with innovative ways to work effectively and gives you the option of utilizing your complete infrastructure behind your applications. Thus, you can have a robust and convenient service framework and easy to use user interface.
Integrate Oracle Mobile Cloud Service with Oracle Cloud Service
Integrating your Oracle IoT Cloud Service instance to Oracle Mobile Cloud Service allows you to process and analyze the data received from your mobile devices.

- Select that Mobile Backend and click Settings on the left navigation area.
- In the HTTP Basic Authentication section, copy and save the value that’s in the Mobile Backend ID text field.
- Create a mobile user whose credentials you will use when you configure your Mobile Cloud Service Integration.
5. Define a collection in your Oracle Mobile Cloud Service instance.
This collection will provide a way to store the messages that will be received via the Oracle IoT Cloud Service integration.
- Click Storage in the left navigation area.
- Click New Collection on the right pane.
- Specify the required value for the Collection Name text field.
For example, you can name it IOTMessages.
6. Specify the user role to use for the collection that you just created.
