Missing ORDS_Metadata and Deprecation of java -jar ords.war install advanced Command
I have successfully installed Oracle REST Data Services (ORDS) by deploying the ords.war file and running the ords install command, followed by linking my Oracle database. The setup seems to be working fine as the ORDS_PUBLIC_USER schema is available. However, I am facing an issue as the ORDS_METADATA package, which is required for enabling the schema using the ORDS.ENABLE_SCHEMA command, is missing. The documentation mentions using the java -jar ords.war install advanced command to install the necessary metadata, but this method appears to be deprecated, and I am unsure how to proceed. Can anyone assist me in resolving this issue?
My overall goal is to retrieve and view the content of a table from my Oracle database through a REST API using Oracle REST Data Services (ORDS). I have successfully installed ORDS and linked it to my database, but I am unable to proceed because the ORDS_METADATA schema is missing, and I cannot use the ORDS.ENABLE_SCHEMA function to enable access to my database schema. Without this, I am unable to expose the database table's content via a RESTful API.
