# JDBC Data Sources: Security: Credential Mapping

Column Display Related Tasks Related Topics

Credential mapping for a JDBC data source is the process in which WebLogic Server user IDs are mapped to database user IDs.

Use this page to configure credential mapping services for a JDBC data source.

If credential mapping is enabled on the data source, when an application requests a database connection from the data source, WebLogic Server determines the current WebLogic Server user ID and then sets the mapped database ID as a light-weight client ID on the database connection.

This feature relies on features in the JDBC driver and DBMS. It is not supported for all drivers and database management systems.
