sas viya 3.5 job execution with prompts, html form cannot access caslib because it's not assigned

acordes — Sun, 21 Nov 2021 18:44:46 GMT

I have a job defined with _action parameters "prompts, execute" which works fine in SAS Studio.

But the same job within JobExecution environment gives an error because the form's data-driven selectors do not populate saying "data soruce not found".

My example follows @XavierBizoux ' s great series about job execution and input forms.

The work folder and sashelp are available for the job's form, but the caslibs are not assigned.

I've tried to assign them in a separate job before calling the form, no success.

I've put the html lines into a data _null_ step to ensure that the caslib is already assigned, but I don't have a clue about what output_type to define when mixing sas code in the job with the html form...

I've found the solution to my problem, it has to do with the compute context.

Is dynamic drop downs possible in SAS VIYA 3.5? Were you able to load the drop down from a sas data set in SAS Viya 3.5?
