SWAT - Parameters to connect from local Python client in Windows to a remote SAS Viya 3.5 CAS Server

[a20121248]

Hi experts:

I have SAS Viya 3.5 and I want to connect to the CAS server through my local Python client using SWAT. I usually connect through SAS Studio using a URL, so I'm not sure if it is possible to connect from my local computer or is it a must to have Jupyter/Python client installed in the SAS Viya server?.

In SAS Studio, I was able to find to following parameters for host and port (please let me know if this assumption is right):

The problem is when I try to connect in Python, I've got the following error:

Is it possible to connect from my local Python in Windows? or am I missing something?

Best regards,

Javier

It is possible to connect from Python to CAS using SWAT, but you need to have a path to the server / port you are trying to connect to. You may want to try using the Test-NetConnection cmdlet to confirm you have a network path:

Test-NetConnection cas.example.com -port 5570
