SAS Viya Trial - Downloading tables

[lancman]

I'm trying out the SAS Viya 30 day trial. I can find my way around the interface and understand about connecting to CAS. It says if I want to continue the trial after the 30 days I should download my data and sign up for a new trial. I've created tables in CASUSER and saved them as .sashdat files but there doesn't seem to be any way of downloading the table in SAS format to use again later. I can export to csv but that's not giving me the exact same tables when I upload them back because of mixed formatting (numbers as strings, etc.). Any pointers on how to download a sashdat table from CAS? I can't copy to the SAS Content folders either.

Hi @lancman !

Thank you for using our SAS Communities!

The only option available with our trials is to export them in a .csv format. Currently, there is no option to export them in .sashdat though this is available in licensed SAS software. Hope this helps!

Hi @SAS_Cares 

I am using a licensed SAS Viya 3.5, but did not manage to find out how to export CAS tables in .sashdat (only csv)

Would you care to share how to do it?
