Define "environment".

Do you want to transport such data between different SAS metadata repositories, or do you need to synchronize SAS metadata with external sources (like AD, LDAP, or UNIX passwd dictionaries)?

I want to transfer such data between different SAS metadata repositorie only.

You might get some hints here:

User Synchronization

Sample Code for User Synchronization

Although these deal with synchronization between SAS metadata and OS authentication data, you have a place where the metadata is extracted to SAS tables, which are then used for compares.

You could use that part to extract data from one repository, and then use the datasets to update the second.

Hi @kaushalsolanki,

If you decide you'd like a point-and-click way to synchronise SAS metadata identities between SAS environments, the Metacoda Identity Sync Plug-in may be of interest. This SAS Management Console plug-in has the option to synchronise between AD and SAS, and SAS and SAS. There is a screencast video demonstration at Synchronizing SAS Platform Identities.

Kind Regards,
