SAS ETL based API to verify availability of webapplication

[learn_SAS_23]

Hello Team 

As a requirement , i am supposed to generate sas ETL based API to verify whether URL is working as expected , let us say to verify www.gmail.com (the input parameters are username and password ) ,  

 i need to generate API and print the results to a file ( 1 : user login successfully , 0 : Username and password doesn't match) 

Can any one guide, how to invoke a URL from SAS DI , by passing URL and username and password as input parameters.

Haven't done this specfically, so just some general directions here.

There are two tranformations you could use, given that you can formulate your request as SOAP or REST.

Otherwise I suggest you create a User Written transformation that does a PROC HPPT call given the parameters you mention.
