SASFileRef


Subclass of DeployedDataPackage


Overview

Represents a name temporarily assigned to an external file or to an aggregate storage location that identifies it to SAS. The associated ContentLocations (and this should be a single object except for concatenated files) represent the location used by the fileref.

Security Inheritance and Enforcement Rules

The following list of associations is used to determine if this object should inherit access controls from another object (inheritance), or if the association is allowed for the object (enforcement). An association will not be created unless the calling user is authorized to update one or both objects involved in the association. For more information about inheritance and enforcement rules, see the SAS Intelligence Platform: Security Administration Guide.
