caslib - Projects path in Deny List

NN — Thu, 15 May 2025 17:14:34 GMT

Hi Everyone,
i was attempting to run a score code in SAS Studio.
but got the error that the mco_binary_caslib did not exist.

Hence i tried assigning the caslib as shown below

%let mco_binary_caslib = "Analytics_Project_XXXXXXXXX";
caslib "&mco_binary_caslib" datasource=(srctype="path") path="/sasdata/projects/text-XXXXXXXX" ;

but this gives the error that the projects path is part of the deny list.
The above code will run if i run with elevated priviliges because it seems the denylist is not applicable for admins.
My question is - Is there any way to assign the caslib without admin priviliges ?
Or am i missing some step.
I am not a regular SAS Viya user hence any suggestions you can give is highly appreciated.
Viya 3.5
SAS Studio V

You may want to take a look at this documentation on the configuration of the path lists for CAS, it sounds like you need to add this path as allowed or remove it from denied.

Thanks @gwootton
Yes i can definitely remove the path from the Deny list.
I was trying to see if there was any other method to assign the caslib.

Im not sure why the projects path is part of the deny list , there might be some security reason for it which i would have to find out before removing .
