(SQL) Tip of the Day: Import/Export with SQL Azure V12

Today’s (SQL) Tip…

As mentioned earlier you have to make sure you are up to date to work with SQL Azure V12. Currently we have a number of customers that are running into errors while trying to import their databases between V11 and V12 or doing any import and export operations.

There was a recent update to SSDT and DacFX that resolves a large number of the issues and is the only version that is fully compatible with V12. You can read more about it over at the Data Tools Blog https://blogs.msdn.com/b/ssdt/archive/2015/03/03/sql-server-data-tools-and-data-tier-application-framework-update-for-february-2015.aspx

Like the SSMS updates this is essential to successfully using V12 in your environment.
