Can I read a WPS dataset with Alteryx?

I am a new user.  I see SAS file support but not WPS.   I tried to rename the WPS file extension to sas7bdat but that did not work.  Any suggestions?

Hi @bigD08inga ,

 

I'm not familiar with WPS format, so I could be wrong here.

You can use python or R to read WPS file and convert to a readable format to Alteryx.

Thank you.  WPS is a SAS-like language.  The files I have are quite large, several hundred GB each, so I was hoping I could go directly into Alteryx with out an intermediate file.  Thank you for your input!
