I feel so silly for posting this because you’ll quickly realize that I will have to leave things unfinished for now. But I was so excited that I actually got something to work that I had to share! If you’ve been following along, you know you can always find me…

Recently Jeff and I were invited by the Oracle Developers and Developer Relations teams to do a walkthrough of a LiveLabs workshop, “How to Build Powerful and Secure REST APIs for Your Oracle Autonomous Database.” You can access the workshop here. We spent about 90 minutes moving through selected labs…

The simple POST request It was bugging me that I couldn’t perform a simple Python POST request to an ORDS REST-enabled table.

Willkommen I stumbled upon a new [to me] python library called Folium. It's a mapping tool that enables python developers (or is it programmers, which is less offensive?) to visualize data on a Leaflet map.

Skip this and just take me to the Abridged Walk-Through — Update I’ve run into more problems with this python/flask/ords/adb app idea of mine. Turns out I’m too [developer] dumb to do some of the things I had originally envisioned. Now that I’ve become more familiar with python, flask, the Oracle Autonomous Database, and our Database Tools (like ORDS and Database Actions)…
