How do I transfer my snippets from SAS Studio in SAS University Edition to SAS OnDemand for Acad.?

Dear all

I have a useful collection of snippets under the 'My Snippets' menu in SAS Studio for SAS University Edition that I compiled over time. Since SAS University Edition will be discontinued next year, I'm beginning to use SAS onDemand for Academics, and I'd like to be able to access my existing snippets in SAS onDemand.

Would you know of a way to transfer those snippets from the SAS Studio in SAS University Edition to the SAS Studio in SAS onDemand?

Thank you ahead

Tony

You can upload them one at a time or else zip all into one file and extract them on SODA. This blog might help:

The actual snippets live in the .mysnippets directory under the myfolders directory. There is also an file there named mysnippets.json.txt that has the metadata for the snippets.
