ASEXPORT Procedure

Overview: ASEXPORT Procedure

The ASEXPORT procedure is a SAS procedure used to migrate metadata from DataFlux Authentication Server to SAS Metadata Server. The procedure supports direct object migration through the SAS Open Metadata Interface. It also supports the creation of an export package that is compatible with PROC METADATA.
The following steps illustrate the workings of the ASEXPORT procedure:
  1. The META= connection and filter parameters are used to connect to SAS Metadata Server..
  2. The AS= connection and filter parameters are used to connect to DataFlux Authentication Server.
  3. The MATCH, MATCH SINGLETON, ADD, and DELETE statements use these working sets to build up the mappings between DataFlux Authentication Server and SAS Metadata Server objects.
  4. The LIST statement lists them.
  5. The EXPORT statement exports them to a file, forwards them to the SAS Metadata Server, or both.
  6. The file created by the EXPORT statement can be used directly by the METADATA procedure as its IN= procedure option.
