The API documentation says that requests use HMAC authentication and that "c<SPAN>ommon choices for HMAC...include C++, Javascript, Python, R, <STRONG>SAS</STRONG>, Stata,&nbsp;and Visual Basic, and tutorials are easily found online."&nbsp;</SPAN></P><P>&nbsp;</P><P><SPAN>I tried an Internet search to get a basic template of code for making the API call, but didn't come up with anything too useful.&nbsp;</SPAN></P><P>&nbsp;</P><P><SPAN>Can someone suggest where to look to get started? Would PROC HTTP be used or something else?</SPAN></P><P>&nbsp;</P><P><SPAN>Thank you for any help or insights.</SPAN></P><P>&nbsp;</P><P><SPAN>Dhrumil</SPAN></P> Mon, 30 Jan 2017 23:21:15 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Data-Management/Making-an-API-Call-in-SAS-using-HMAC-Authentication/m-p/328617#M9641 dhrumil_patel 2017-01-30T23:21:15Z https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Data-Management/Making-an-API-Call-in-SAS-using-HMAC-Authentication/m-p/331194#M9741 <P><A href="https://gist.github.com/FriedEgg/79ad315afa1b315e8ac3#file-hmacsha1-sas" target="_blank">https://gist.github.com/FriedEgg/79ad315afa1b315e8ac3#file-hmacsha1-sas</A></P> Thu, 09 Feb 2017 15:33:07 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Data-Management/Making-an-API-Call-in-SAS-using-HMAC-Authentication/m-p/331194#M9741 FriedEgg 2017-02-09T15:33:07Z
