user details in SAS

Aexor — Thu, 26 Aug 2021 18:13:04 GMT

Hi,

My requirement is getting user details who all is using SAS server.

Its basically capturing the users details from the server.

Do we have any automated script or anything else available for this requirement?

Thanks!

Do you want to find out who could use the SAS server, or who has used it?

mduextr is the easiest way to extract all information about users from the metadata. But if you want to know who actually used sas, you will have to read and parse the logs of the metadata server.

Either parse the metadata server logs, or see if Environment Manager can provide what you need.
