# `aidp-epm-cloud` — EPM Cloud Planning REST → Spark ## When to use - User wants to pull a Planning data slice (POV × columns × rows) from EPM Cloud into Spark. - User mentions: "EPM Cloud", "EPBCS", "Hyperion Planning", "planning app", "exportdataslice", "MDX export". ## When NOT to use - For Essbase 21c on-prem MDX → use [`aidp-essbase`](../aidp-essbase/SKILL.md). - For Fusion ERP / HCM → use [`aidp-fusion-rest`](../aidp-fusion-rest/SKILL.md). ## Prerequisites in the AIDP notebook 1. `pip install requests pandas` (usually pre-installed). 2. Helpers on `sys.path`. 3. EPM pod URL + credentials in the form ``tenancy.user@domain``. ## Auth: HTTP Basic ```python import os from oracle_ai_data_platform_connectors.auth import http_basic_session from oracle_ai_data_platform_connectors.rest.epm import ( list_applications, export_data_slice, slice_to_long_dataframe, ) # EPM_USERNAME MUST be in identity-domain form: tenancy.user@domain # e.g. epmloaner622.first.last@oracle.com session = http_basic_session( username=os.environ["EPM_USERNAME"], password=os.environ["EPM_PASSWORD"], base_url=os.environ["EPM_BASE_URL"], ) # Pre-flight: confirm credentials work and the app is reachable apps = list_applications(session, os.environ["EPM_BASE_URL"]) print("applications:", [a["name"] for a in apps]) # Run the export slice_response = export_data_slice( session=session, base_url=os.environ["EPM_BASE_URL"], application=os.environ["EPM_APPLICATION"], plan_type=os.environ["EPM_PLAN_TYPE"], grid_definition={ "suppressMissingBlocks": True, "suppressMissingRows": True, "pov": { "dimensions": ["HSP_View", "Year", "Scenario", "Version", "Entity", "Product"], "members": [["BaseData"], ["FY26"], ["Actual"], ["Working"], ["Total Entity"], ["P_TP"]] }, "columns": [{"dimensions": ["Period"], "members": [["Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May", "Jun"]]}], "rows": [{"dimensions": ["Account"], "members": [["IChildren(PL)"]]}], }, ) df = slice_to_long_dataframe(spark, slice_response) df.show(10) print("cells:", df.count()) ``` ## Gotchas - **Username MUST include the identity-domain prefix.** `tenancy.user@domain` (e.g. `epmloaner622.first.last@oracle.com`). The bare `first.last@oracle.com` returns 401. - **POV members must be leaf-level.** EPM returns 400 / empty if you pass a parent member without `IChildren()` / `ILvl0Descendants()`. - **`#Missing` cells** — empty Planning blocks come back as the literal string `"#Missing"`. Helper preserves this in the `value` column; cast to numeric and filter as needed. - **401 vs 403** — 401 = auth fail (re-check Basic creds). 403 = permission denied (different code path; don't retry). ## References - Helpers: [scripts/oracle_ai_data_platform_connectors/rest/epm.py](../../scripts/oracle_ai_data_platform_connectors/rest/epm.py) - EPM Planning REST docs: https://docs.oracle.com/en/cloud/saas/planning-budgeting-cloud/pbcrr/
