# OCI Setup

> Connect OCI with a dedicated read-only user and API key, then use the account for inventory and benchmark-oriented review.

# OCI Setup

OCI currently uses the manual credential path in the Cloudgeni UI.

You need:

* A tenancy
* A dedicated OCI user
* An API key pair
* A read-oriented policy for the compartments you want Cloudgeni to inspect

## Minimal Policy Shape

Create a group such as `CloudGeniReaders`, put the dedicated user in that group, and add policy
statements like:

```text theme={null}
Allow group CloudGeniReaders to inspect compartments in tenancy
Allow group CloudGeniReaders to read all-resources in tenancy
```

Then upload the public key to the OCI user and enter:

* Tenancy OCID
* User OCID
* Fingerprint
* Private key

in the Cloudgeni form.

## What OCI Enables

OCI is still useful for:

* Resource inventory
* Agent context
* CIS-oriented benchmark coverage where the framework model supports it
