Hi all,

I need to retrieve the transformation names in my jobs to identify the failed transformations any possible error and log them into a table. All I can get from the code is this:
%let transformID = ...
which can get me the ID. However for quick troubleshooting I need to get the name too.

Are there any internal variables that I can use and is there a library I can access on the SAS site to see what is available?

Thanks,

try the getattr() metadata function. Feed in the &transformID variable to return the name of the object.
