Note: For the Autonomous REST Connector: The branding described in this section requires the driver to be unlocked by the application. If the end users' application cannot be modified to pass the password, such as the case with a third-party application or BI tool, you may brand the driver by locking the API. See "Locking the Autonomous REST Connector to an API" for details.
