SAS Studio Workstation

SAS Studio Workstation Space

You will need to be a member of the SAS Studio Workstation Space (https://precision.fda.gov/spaces/537) in order to use the FDA's enterprise SAS license that is incorporated into a SAS Studio Snapshot file located in the Space (e.g. SASStudio_FDA.snapshot). FDA users that wish to use SAS Studio on precisionFDA should contact precisionFDA Support to request membership in the SAS Studio Workstation Space.

Follow the procedure in the Run the pfda-ttyd Featured App section of this tutorial, selecting the execution Context as SAS Studio Workstation Space and specifying SASStudio_FDA.snapshot in the Snapshot inputs section.

Open the workstation once it is running, download the sample SAS code, and start SAS Studio.

pfda download -space-id 537 -folder-id 8331897 
mv *.sas /home/sasuser/
mv *.xpt /home/sasuser/
mkdir /home/sasuser/SAS_Datasets
chown sasuser /home/sasuser/SAS_Datasets/
./sasstudio.sh start

Copy the ttyd job URL and append :8080/SASStudio to it (e.g. https://job-gb95v8j0x42xgk0k36v02qgy.dnanexus.cloud:8080/SASStudio) to open SAS Studio and login with user "sasuser" password "sas".

sas studio

Note that the home folder in SAS Studio is mapped to /home/sasuser on the workstation local filesystem.

ls /home/sasuser/
SAS_histograms.sas  SAS_prog_structure.sas  SAS_sort_data_sets.sas  SAS_write_data.sas  sasuser.v94

Open up one of the SAS example files and run it.
