Specifying the Path to the Log
Overview
In the SAS Data
Integration Studio Job Editor, you have opened a job that includes
the Clickstream Log transformation. You want to specify the path to
the Web log to be processed. You can use the File Location tab in the properties window for the Clickstream Log transformation
to specify the location of the Web log. (This approach assumes that
you are working with a copy of one of the template jobs, or that you
have dragged and dropped the Clickstream Log transformation into another
job.)
Specify the Path to the Web Log
-
Select or type the path to the Web log file. The path must be accessible to the SAS Application Server that executes the job. If you specify a path, you can use the Preview button to have the SAS Application Server attempt to retrieve the first few lines of the file. This is helpful to validate that you have specified the path correctly.You can specify the filename as a path or a SAS macro variable, such as
&INPUTFILE. A SAS macro variable might be useful if you use the Clickstream Log transformation in a loop. For loop processing, the current value of the SAS macro variable is used. Note that all template jobs use loop processing. However, tutorial jobs do not use loop processing.
