SAS Namespace Types

Extension

Overview

Extension enables end users and application developers to define additional attributes that are not part of an object's metadata type definition. Use the Extension metadata type to define attributes that store character values.

Security Inheritance and Enforcement Rules

The following list of associations is used to determine if this object should inherit access controls from another object (inheritance), or if the association is allowed for the object (enforcement). An association will not be created unless the calling user is authorized to update one or both objects involved in the association. For more information about inheritance and enforcement rules, see the SAS Intelligence Platform: Security Administration Guide.
