SAS Command executable in Viya

Hello everyone,

i'm currently shifting from SAS 9.4 to SAS Viya on Kubernetes (LTS 2024.03 cadence).

Currently in SAS 9.4 we deploy DI jobs as .sas files and execute them using the usual SAS command executable that allows several additional options, as shown in the image below:

Considering I want to execute SAS Viya Job Definitions using the SAS Viya CLI, namely "job webapp execute" module, what would be the correspondence of "set" options in Viya?

Please note my "set" options have themselves a value of a Unix variable ($VAR1, $VAR2, $VAR3).

Thank you in advance,

Francisco Coutinho

Hello @f_coutinho
Please have a look at these references (and further reverences in these articles)

IMHO Sas Viya is a distinct application on its own with good level of functionality in Common with SAS 9.x. But it is not the same as SAS 9.x. Let us not look for 1-1 match between features.
