Publish Reports to JMP Live or JMP Public

JMP Live is a website purchased by your company for sharing JMP content privately. JMP Live can be hosted by SAS or your company. JMP Public is a website using the same technology as JMP Live, where anyone can share JMP content with the public.

JMP Live and JMP Public are platforms for sharing JMP data, visualizations, and dashboards. Prepare your reports in JMP and publish them as posts to collaborate with your colleagues, even those who might not have JMP.

JMP Live and JMP Public offer the visual interactivity of JMP to explore your data, and let you do the following:

Store all of your reports in one location.

Control sharing of individual reports with those who need to see them.

Maintain up-to-date reports for your team in an easily accessible location.

Extend the functionality of reports to other locations: embed and interact with your reports in web pages, blogs, social media posts and more.

Register and Sign Into a SAS Profile (JMP Public Only)

Before you can publish posts to JMP Public, you must register and sign in using a SAS profile.

Note: If you are not signed in to JMP Public, you see only featured posts.

1. In a browser, go to https://public.jmp.com.

Supported browsers include Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge (based on Chromium).

2. At the top right, click Sign in.

3. If you already have a SAS profile, log on using those credentials, then click Submit.

4. If you do not have a SAS profile:

a. Click Create profile. Complete the form and click Create profile.

b. Follow the instructions in the email to set your password and activate your profile.

Add a JMP Live Server

Before you can publish to JMP Live, you must add a JMP Live server.

1. In JMP, select File > Publish > Manage Connections.

2. Click Add New.

3. Enter an identifying name for the connection, such as JMP Live.

4. Enter the server URL, formatted like this: https://jmpliveserver.com:3501 (where 3501 is the default web server port).

5. (Optional) To use JSL to create JMP Live reports, enter an API key.

6. Click Next.

7. Sign in to the JMP Live server with your user name and password.

8. Once the connection is created successfully, click Save.

The server name appears under Select a connection.

Create and Publish JMP Reports

1. In JMP, create the reports.

You can create a single report, which appears as its own post in JMP Live or JMP Public, or multiple reports which appear in a folder.

2. (Skip if your report does not contain a Local Data Filter.) If the report contains a Local Data Filter, add columns before you publish, otherwise the Local Data Filter will be static instead of active. To add columns, select them in the Local Data Filter and click the Add icon.

3. Select File > Publish > Publish to JMP Live or Publish to JMP Public.

(JMP Live only) If you have not added a JMP Live server, add one now. See Add a JMP Live Server.

Note on Data Accessibility

The data that is represented in your published reports will exist online in HTML5 files as well as in the JMP data table format.

Disabling the Allow data to be downloaded option prevents any user who has access to the JMP Live page from being able to download the data in the JMP data table format, but it does not prevent a user from being able to get the HTML file containing the data in XML format. Enabling the Allow data to be downloaded option allows a user who has access to the JMP Live page to get the data in either way. The JMP format is only useful to users who have access to the JMP Live page who also have a separate license of JMP software or a third-party software that knows how to read JMP files, but a user of the JMP Live page only needs a web browser to see the data in the HTML file.
