CREATE EXTERNAL REFERENCE System Privilege

Required to create external references in the database.

This system privilege is required in addition to any other system privileges required for creating a database object that references an external object.

For example:

To create an external term breaker or a self-owned text configuration that uses an external term breaker requires the system privilege CREATE TEXT CONFIGURATION in addition to the CREATE EXTERNAL REFERENCE system privilege.
To create an external procedure or function requires the CREATE PROCEDURE system privilege in addition to the CREATE EXTERNAL REFERENCE system privilege.

Grant this system privilege using the WITH ADMIN OPTION, WITH NO ADMIN OPTION, or WITH ADMIN ONLY OPTION clause. If you do not specify a clause, the WITH NO ADMIN OPTION clause is used by default.
