SAS RTDM - Synchronize repository SAS Decision Services

psmerill — Thu, 24 Jan 2019 11:09:11 GMT

Hi all,

Can I synchronize Repository (Engine) of SAS Decision Services from a SAS program instead that from SAS Management Console (Plug-ins Decision Services)?

Thanks,
Paolo

Hi Paulo,

There is no external function available to initiate the repository synchronisation, however there are a couple of workarounds.

For RTDM v6.3 or less: the Batch Activator command line utility can be used to deactivate/activate a decision flow. When performing this action, the activator calls the synchronise repository method. So the workaround is to create a dummy campaign in the repository, and then use the Batch Activator to activate/deactivate it, thereby causing a repository synch.

For RTDM 6.4 or higher: the batch activator approach above is still valid, but there is also a REST API (Decision Services Administration) which does the same sorts of things as the CLI Batch Activator. So you can program a REST call (instead of a CLI utility) to do the activation instead.

Regards

James
