About the webinar
Take your SAS graphics to the next level by combining them with the power and flexibility of Python’s leading plotting libraries. Discover how SAS and Python can work together to produce richer, more modern, and more customizable visualizations—all within a unified analytics workflow.
We’ll guide you through enabling and configuring Python and show you how to embed Python-generated graphics seamlessly into your SAS programs in both SAS 9 and SAS Viya.
You’ll learn the key integration methods—such as PROC FCMP in SAS 9 (from version 9.4M6) and both PROC PYTHON and PROC FCMP in SAS Viya—and see how these capabilities combine SAS robustness with Python’s innovative visualization ecosystem.
In this webinar, you’ll learn how to
- Enable and configure Python
- Use PROC FCMP and PROC PYTHON to run Python code directly in SAS
- Integrate Python plotting libraries (e.g., Matplotlib, Plotly) into SAS workflows
- Generate and embed Python-created graphics within SAS programs
- Leverage a unified approach that boosts flexibility while maintaining an efficient, end-to-end analytics process
