• More Information

You can use the SAS Xpt connector from the CData Sync application to capture data from SAS Xpt and move it to any supported destination. To do so, you need to add the connector, authenticate to the connector, and complete your connection.

Establish a Connection

To allow Sync to use data from SAS Xpt, you first must establish a connection to SAS Xpt. Follow these steps to connect SAS Xpt to your Sync account:

1. Open the Connections page of the Sync dashboard.

2. Click Add Connection to open the Select Connectors page.

3. Click the Sources tab and locate the SAS Xpt row.

4. Click the Configure Connection icon at the end of that row. If you do not see the Configure Connection icon, you need to add the connector according to the instructions in Connections.

5. Enter connection settings on the Settings tab:

   • Connection Name - Enter a connection name of your choice.

   • URI - Enter the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) for your SAS Xpt resource location.

   • Connection Type - Select the connection type that you want to use. The default type is Auto.

6. Click Create & Test to create the connection.

7. Define advanced connection settings on the Advanced tab. (In most cases, though, you should not need these settings.)
