How to status of job submitted using SAS Viya Rest API

Ankur_151987 — Fri, 10 Dec 2021 14:35:21 GMT

Hello,

We are calling a SAS job using a Rest API. This SAS job is saved as Job definition so we get such URL to use for executing a job using REST API

https://hostname/SASJobExecution/?_program=/Public/jobname

So when we execute this job we would like to get the status of this in front end. So wondering how to get status of job that was submitted using REST API.

Any link to white paper or blog is also helpful.

To poll the status you would need to use the REST APIs (/compute), not the Web interface (/SASJobExecution).

If you're looking to run jobs from a web frontend, you could look at SASjs - this will automatically handle the polling for you with a very simple javascript method ( sasjs.request(/job/name,dataPayload) ).

If you are looking to do this from commandline, you can also use the CLI (`sasjs job execute /some/job`) - https://cli.sasjs.io/job/

These are open source tools built and maintained by my team (not SAS). They are free for commercial use.
