createFromJson

Creates one or more connections to SAS Visual Analytics servers defined in JSON.

Compliant JSON defines a list of servers:

{
  "servers": [
    {
      "serverHostName": "my.demo.server.com",
      "useSSL": false,
      "serverPort": 80,
      "serverDescription": "_i18n:server_desc",
      "useGuestMode": false,
      "userId": "fred",
      "password": "S3cr37!",
      "reportIds": [
        "17d5fb14-8c1d-40e1-9380-73ffea806c14",
        "57ddfc19-7a1d-38e1-7421-81fabac02c38",
        "38abce26-6a1d-37e1-7407-80ffccd04b40",
      ],
      "reportPaths": [
        "/My/Sample/Report",
        "/My/Sample/Report 2"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Each server is defined by the following:

• serverHostName (required)

  See ConnectionDescriptor.hostName.

• useSSL (optional)

  See ConnectionDescriptor.useSsl. If this is not specified, it defaults to false.

• serverPort (optional)

  See ConnectionDescriptor.port. If this is not specified, it defaults to 443 if useSSL is true, or 80 otherwise.

• serverDescription (optional)

  See ConnectionDescriptor.description. If this value is prefixed with "_i18n:", then the remainder of the value is interpreted as the name of an Android string resource.

• useGuestMode (optional)

  See ConnectionDescriptor.useGuestMode. If this is not specified, it defaults to false.

• userId (required if useGuestModeis false)

  See ConnectionDescriptor.userId.

• password (required if useGuestModeis false)

  See ConnectionDescriptor.password.

• reportIds (optional)

  A list of reports, identified by their server URIs, to subscribe to once the connection has been created. See ReportDescriptor.forUri.

• reportPaths (optional)

  A list of reports, identified by their server paths, to subscribe to once the connection has been created. See ReportDescriptor.forFileSystemPath.
