Customize the snippet zone on SAS Viya 3.5 / SAS Studio

[claudiodejesusa]

Hi everbody,
 
I'm developer on SAS Viya 3.5 Linux, i want to create customized zones on snippets to share with all users SAS. 
 
For example, now i can create and modify just my snippets, but i can not handle a customized snippet zone for all users and add new fragments or codes. I would like to know the step by step to manage this requirements and also improve the coding experience with users.
 
 

thanks,
Claudio

Hello,

I investigated ...
There is :

• My Snippets     and there's
• SAS Snippets.

It would indeed be nice to be able to add a snippet folder for the company (or for a department within the company).
i.e. Customizing the snippet area / snippet zone as you call it.
Such that all users of the company / department can see and use these extra ( home-made ) snippets.

However, not possible in VIYA 3.5 (SAS Studio V)!! That's for sure.

There's a JIRA feature request at SAS R&D to have this. Some initial work has been done on this feature, but in the latest release of VIYA 4 (2022.11) it's not yet in there. I do not know about its priority. I also do not know if it will ever be implemented.
