Hands-On-Labs Guide
To log in to Oracle Application Express, you need a Workspace name, username, and the password
created for that Workspace. In this hands-on-lab, you log in to your Oracle Application Express
Workspace. Once logged in, you navigate through the major components of Oracle Application
Express. This lab also covers installing and running a packaged application.
a) Open your browser and enter the URL to sign in to Application Express development
environment. You can access the Oracle Application Express application with the URL: http://<
hostname >:< port >/apex. Alternatively, if you have already signed up for a free Workspace on
apex.oracle.com, use the URL: http://apex.oracle.com, then click the Sign In button (top right).
b) The login page appears. Enter the Workspace name, username, and password. Click Sign In.
You may be prompted to change your Workspace password the first time you log in. This option
is set when your username and password are created by the Oracle Application Express
administrator. You can set your new password to be the same as your old password.
