accessing files fom SAS Stdio on Viya/Azure

[TimBedsted]

I have uploaded a file vis SASDrive on Viya4.

I can see the file from inside SAS Studio.

However, I can note make a file reference to it. I get the same lockdown error  as above

78 filename ind "/folders/myfolders/CS_Data/exported_Data.xpt";
ERROR: The path /folders/myfolders/CS_Data/exported_Data.xpt is not in the list of accessible paths when SAS is in the lockdown
state.
ERROR: Error in the FILENAME statement.

Did you add that path to the lockdown allowlist as described here?

Perfect

I wasn't aware of this new feature. I didn't come across it on Viya 3.5.
Now I know what I have to do
Again thanks
