How can i connect oracle SQL developer connection without entering "sid".

Please find the attached screenshot as well for reference.

 

The problem i am facing is ..while connecting Oracle sql developer I am entering service name and keeping the 'SID' field blank(which is not mandatory field in the tool).

 

But in ReadyAPI(Please find the attached screenshot) sid is a mandatory field, i can not keep it blank while connecting.

 

Hence i am getting error "Can't get the Connection for specified properties; java.sql.SQLRecoverableException: IO Error: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection"

    SQL developer has option to choose either service name or sid to connect to oracle database.

    Here you should be able to connect to the same using oracle sid. Give a try.

      Thanks,

      I was able to connect it via sid/service id.
