You can directly read data from SAS files using the Direct file source file type option.

When you create a SAS data object, select the access type as

File Import

to import metadata from a SAS file. In the

Resource Location

field, specify the directory on the local machine where the SAS file resides.

In the SAS data object read operation advanced properties, select

Direct

as the

Source File Type

to indicate that you want the Data Integration Service to read data from a SAS file.

In the SAS data object read operation advanced properties, specify the SAS file path from where you want to read the data. When you run the mapping, the Data Integration Service uses the specified path to read data directly from the SAS file.
