Categorical heatmap in SAS Viya

Is there an analogue for a discrete (categorical) heatmap in sas viya, that in sas can be done with the following syntax:

  proc sgplot data=<data>;
  heatmapparm x=<x> y=<y> colorresponse=<c> / colormodel = (<cml>);
  run;

Visual Analytics definitely enables you to create a heatmap

Dear Madelyn, thank you for your reply. Does this also work for categorical data? In the manual ("Axes Items") it seems there is only an option for continuous data.
