Note that, in the picture, your teacher is connected to localhost, which means (s)he used a local SAS installation, not ODA.
Is there an article that I could reference for our SAS Admin about how to give this access to the network drive folder?
As admins, they have to know how to mount a network share on the SAS server.
This isn't really a SAS problem and you can easily find the answer by googling it. A lot depends on your network environment and OSs being used. In my experience, a server administrator will more likely do this stuff, not a SAS administrator.
What OS does your SAS Viya run on and what version of Viya are you using? SAS Studio has an upload / download file function that doesn't require network folders.
For SAS to write directly to a folder share this will need to be defined on your SAS App server and how you do this depends on the server operating system.
I doubt Viya is running on Windows 10 Enterprise. Run this statement in SAS Studio and post the value from your SAS log:
%put Viya OS = &sysscpl;

I thought you meant the OS of the computer that would be accessing the drive.
The Viya OS is Linux
I thought the questions how to access files currently stored on your PC with your SAS code. Or in your case with your VIYA code. In that case the operating system where SAS is running matters with how you would access the file once you have uploaded it from your local PC to the machine where SAS (or VIYA) is running.
Some additional options for uploading data to "SAS Studio":
1. Drag & Drop into Data Controller -> https://datacontroller.io
2. Deploy a Viya web for uploads, eg: https://github.com/sasjs/fileuploader
3. Build something using the SASjs Server REST API: https://server.sasjs.io
@AllanBowe thank you for this idea, but it isn't quite the goal I am after.
