If you upload a JSL or HTML file from the Results tree, its dependent data sets will also be uploaded to the repository automatically. The JSL or HTML files cannot be viewed from the repository unless they have access to their associated data sets. The data sets are linked to these files through extended attributes defined to the JSL or HTML objects. For JSL, the Associated Data Set fields in the extended attributes must be in the form:

DEP|originaldsname.sas7bdat|newnameonserver.sas7bdat

For HTML, the Associated File fields in the extended attributes must be in the following form:

DEP|originalfilename.html|newnameonserver.html
