How to Prepare SAS Metadata Export Files (SPK) for Alchemist

Only one spk file at a time!

Alchemist can only process one spk file at a time. If you have multiple spk files, you will need to process them one by one.

In order to get all information when analysing SAS metadata (libraries, datasets & jobs) it is important to properly prepare the SPK files.

  1. Find metadata folders that contain what you want to export
  2. Select all of them, right click and select "Export SAS Package"
  3. Remember to check “Include dependent objects when retrieving initial collection of objects”
