Import Package Files from SAS Enterprise Miner

What Is a SAS Enterprise Miner Package File?

SAS Enterprise Miner package files are SPK files that contain complete model information. A user can import SAS Enterprise Miner models even if they are not registered in a SAS Metadata Repository.

Create Package Files

To create an SPK file for an existing SAS Enterprise Miner model, follow these steps:
  1. Open the SAS Enterprise Miner diagram that contains the model, and then run the model.
  2. After the model run is complete, you can right-click the model in the SAS Enterprise Miner Diagram Workspace, and select Create Model Package. The new SPK filename appears under the Model Packages folder in your SAS Enterprise Miner Project Navigator.
  3. Right-click the filename and select Save As to copy the SPK file from the SAS Enterprise Miner server to your computer.
  4. Specify a destination folder on your computer, such as, C:\MMData, and save the file to your workstation folder.
