Open SAS Management Console

SAS Management Console is the primary interface for managing groups, roles, folders, and permissions for your SAS applications. To open SAS Management Console:

Make sure that your computer’s operating environment supports SAS Management Console. See SAS Management Console System Requirements.
Determine the host name for the servers in your SAS Cloud environment:
1. In the My Applications section of the SAS App Central Home page, open a web-based SAS application (for example, SAS vApp Ledger).
  
  The application appears in a new tab in your browser. The address bar for the tab contains a URL in the following format:
  
  https://host-name/application-name/
2. Make a note of the host name, which is generally in the form name1.name2.sas.com. You will need this name in a later step.
In the My Applications section of the SAS App Central Home page, click the SAS Management Console icon.

A copy of the SAS Management Console executable (SASManagementConsole.exe) is downloaded to your desktop.
Click Run or Open to run the executable; or save the executable, and then run it from its saved location.

The following window appears:
In this window, do the following:
1. Select the check box I need to proxy my access to SAS servers .
2. In the Target System URL field, enter or paste the host name that you obtained in step 1. Enter it directly after the characters http://.
  
  Tip
  The correct protocol is http. Do not change it to https.
3. Click Launch SAS Mgmt Console.
  
  The Connection Profile window appears:
4. Click OK to connect to the environment’s SAS Metadata Server.
  
  The SAS Management Console application opens.

Note: If the connection fails, you might need to create a new connection profile. See Create a Connection Profile.
