When you first open
the SAS Mobile BI for iPad app, the only connection that is available
is to the SAS Demo Server.
To access your organization’s
library server, you must add a connection to that server. If your
organization has more than one server, you can add connections to
these servers in the same way.
Note: Contact your SAS Visual Analytics
system administrator for your user ID, password, and server information.
To connect to a server:
-
Tap
Library in
the portfolio.
-
-
-
Tap in the
Domain field,
and enter the address of the server.
-
Tap in the
Port field,
and enter the port number for the server.
-
Tap the
Secure
connection switch if the server requires a secure connection
(SSL).
-
Tap
Next to
verify the connection.
Note: If the connection fails,
a message is displayed to help you correct the problem.
-
If the server provides
guest access, the
Log on as guest switch
appears. Tap the
Log on as guest switch to
access the server as a guest.
-
If the server requires
security credentials to access reports:
-
Tap the
User
ID field, and enter your user ID.
-
Tap the
Password field,
and enter your password.
-
(Optional) Tap the
Description field
to customize the description for the connection.
-
Tap
Next to
verify the connection.
Note: If the connection fails,
a message is displayed to help you correct the problem.
-
The connection is saved
and the
Connections window closes.
If the connection is
to a passcode-protected server, the app requires you to create a passcode.
Information about available
reports is automatically downloaded and appears in the library.
