Which user to grant privileges to run external job: DBMS_SCHEDULER

Jerry8989Apr 14 2026

I have installed Oracle Database 21c Express Edition (XE) and APEX 24.2 on Windows 11 64-bit.

I'm stuck on how to grant privileges to allow DBMS_SCHEDULER to execute.

Which user do I grant the permissions too?

Do I do it through APEX, SQL plus or SQL developer?

Do I need to update the TNSNames.ora or SQLNet.ora?

I read I'm supposed to grant them to the parseable able schema, but I'm not sure how to do that.

Thank you
