They are a fine bunch of SAS developers. All the same, I would prefer the security model to do the work. Thanks for the suggestion LinusH. ... View more

True, although we have workable processes to take care of most of the other BI objects. We also took the approach to seperate the job from the deployed job objects as you've mentioned. Yet it seems write permission is still needed on the job object itself when deploying code, which is the big security issue. ... View more

Hi, We use SAS 9.2 TS2M3 and DI Studio 4.2M2. Our metadata security model does not allow the SAS developers to make direct changes to DI jobs in the Foundation repository, forcing the developers to check-in/check-out their jobs via project repositories. But a user needs write permission to the Foundation job in order to deploy the code. If the developers were granted this permission it would result in all manner of issues including deleted jobs and loss of audit trail as the project repositories could be bypassed. Currently only the 'techincal lead' & admin users have write permission on the jobs folders in order to deploy jobs. Its a pain - has anyone found a workable way to allow jobs to be deployed from Foundation without opening a massive security hole? Cheers. ... View more

No Problem. Each Web Report Studio report has a metadata component and associated physical files. A basic web report will just have a physical .srx file stored in WebDAV or the Content Server. When viewing the properties of the metadata report definition in SMC, the 'Content' tab displays the associated file(s). I would like to query return this information directly from Metadata, the above XML gives me lots of information for all reports but nothing on the physical files. ... View more

Associated .srx file properties in metadata

Hi All, I would like to export the 'external content' details from metadata for web reports, dashboard objects etc (e.g. the physical .srx filename/location). The information is available on the report properties -> contents tab (content associated with item) within SMC. I've exported as much information as I can get hold of using PROC METADATA (below), yet I cannot find this information.   <GetMetadataObjects> <Reposid>$METAREPOSITORY</Reposid> <Type>Transformation</Type> <Objects/> <NS>SAS</NS> <Flags>257</Flags> <Options> <XMLSelect search="*[@PublicType=''Report'']" /> <Templates> </Templates> </Options> </GetMetadataObjects> Any ideas? Thanks, Raas ... View more
