The
following example shows you how to use the INFOMAPS procedure to create an
information map.
proc infomaps metauser="pubhdc1\sasdemo"
metapass="Pwd123"
metaserver="pubhdc1.na.sas.com"
metaport=8561;
/* Open a new information map. The specified location is */
/* where, by default, the information map is saved when a */
/* SAVE statement issued. The information map exists only */
/* in memory until a SAVE statement is issued. */
new infomap "xmp_simple"
mappath="/Users/sasdemo/My Folder"
auto_replace=yes;
/* Make the specified table on the specified server accessible. */
insert datasource sasserver="SASApp"
table="Sample Data"."CLASS" _all_ ;
/* Save the information map that is currently open. Because */
/* no location is specified in the SAVE statement, it is saved */
/* in the location specified in the NEW INFOMAP statement. */
save;
run;
The following window shows the resulting information map opened in SAS
Information Map Studio. Note that the folder CLASS was created automatically
because the INSERT DATASOURCE statement includes the _ALL_
option.
