Getting Name from Metadata ID

keds — Mon, 28 Jul 2014 16:34:31 GMT

Hi all

i have these things in logs all the time ...A0000001.A5STQABL ... metadata ID. i want to map these things to some logical names.

is there a way to get logical name for these metadata id.

for instance , i had to go into the SMC to check that the above is mapped to "SAS Web Infrastructure Platform"

i did something like below and it didnt work, dont know if i am doing this correctly .

data _null_;

length id $20

type $256;

rc=metadata_resolve("omsobj:A0000001.A5STQABL",type,id);

put rc=;

put id=;

put type=;

run;

o/p is rc=0 ; id=;type=;

can somebody let me know how to get around this ?

Thanks

Keds
