Visual data builder code extraction from metadata?

bheerschop — Tue, 30 Aug 2016 07:40:48 GMT

Hi,

I would like to extract the Visual Data Builder (VDB)-code from metadata. Is this possible via a metadata query? Where is the code for the VDB-query stored?

Thanks,

Regards,

Berry

I don't know if/how to do this.

But what wold you like to do with the code?

If you deploy the query for scheduling, the code is stored by default in the configuration directory.

I know I can obtain the code in other ways but I would like to
programmatically obtain it via a datastep metadata query if possible. I've
searched the metadata with SAS Display Manager metabrowse function but I
can't find where this vdb-query code is stored in metadata...

the code of SAS Visual Data Builder is in the Web dav component, at this link you can find the information to access. Is it possible to access via datastep.

hope this help

Thanks for the suggestion. I've searched the WebDav Server and I didn't find any vdb-query files. I could see the SAS Visual Analytic Reports(2G).

I've searched in:http://mywebserver.com:7980/SASContentServer/

Am I missing something here?

Thanks.
