SAS Clinical Acceleration Extension for Visual Studio CodeWelcome to the SAS Clinical Acceleration Extension for Visual Studio Code! This extension provides support for the SAS Clinical Acceleration repository including the following features: OverviewThis extension enables you to interact with SAS Clinical Acceleration repository content. You can view, compare, and open files, visualize details of content items, track the history of versioned content, and upload and download content. InstallationTo install the SAS Clinical Acceleration extension, open the Extensions view by clicking the Extensions icon in the Activity Bar on the left side of the Visual Studio Code window. Search for the 'SAS Clinical Acceleration' extension, and click the Install button. After the installation is complete, the 'Install' button becomes the 'Manage' button. Getting StartedConfiguring the SAS Clinical Acceleration ExtensionBefore accessing the SAS Clinical Acceleration repository, you must configure the extension to access a SAS Viya server with the SAS Clinical Acceleration services installed, configured and running. You must have a valid licence and account for authentication.
Setting Up ProfilesProfiles make it simpler to switch between multiple SAS deployments. For SAS Viya connections, multiple SAS Viya profiles can be used to switch between installations. There is no limit to the amount of profiles that can be stored. Profiles will be stored into the VSCode settings.json file, and can be modified by hand, if necessary. The following commands are supported for profiles:
Details about creating and managing profiles is available on the Connect and Run page. Notes:
Accessing SAS Clinical Acceleration ContentAfter configuring the SAS Clinical Acceleration extension for a SAS Viya environment, you can access the SAS Clinical Acceleration repository content. To access SAS Clinical Acceleration repository content:
FeaturesThe SAS Clinical Acceleration extension provides access to content that is stored within the managed content repository services of the SAS Health Clinical Acceleration services. Repository ViewThe Repository view is the primary view for interacting with the content in the repository. From this view, you can view, upload, download, and compare content. Access to functions is provided via context menus or the toolbar. Properties ViewAs you navigate the Repository view and select items, the Properties view displays relevant properties for the content, such as creation and modification dates, ownership, and other attributes and their values. The set of attributes that are displayed depends on the type of item selected, such as the representation of a file type, folder type, or context type. Version History ViewAs previously noted, the SAS Clinical Acceleration extension repository contains managed content. Items in the repository can be versioned as the data changes over time. In the Version History view, you can view the metadata for specific changes that might have been made to a selected item in the Repository view. Some items are not versionable, such as folder and contexts, and files are not always versioned. If an item has been versioned, the history of changes is represented in this view, which enables you to open and view any of the specific versions. You can also compare versions and compare a specific version to a file in the Repository view.
